Automation engineer by education, Data Scientist by choice, teacher and speaker by passion. I'm a PhD student in machine learning at the University of Pavia, and I was visiting EPFL Lausanne. My research focuses on time series forecasting - mainly power and gas demand - and the identification of power grids. I'm co-founder and chief data scientist at xtream, where we apply academic results to real-world problems. For instance, we developed forecasting models for gas and power demand for two major Italian utilities.
