Biography

Dr. Cristina Nuzzi (born 1993) is an assistant professor in Mechanical and Thermal Measurements with a research topic on the detection of weeds and crops using visual systems and deep learning since 2022. Dr. Nuzzi holds both a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Automation Engineering (2015 and 2017 respectively) received from the University of Brescia. She received her Ph. D. degree in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (track Applied Mechanics) in 2020 from UNIBS, with a dissertation about the concept of Meta-Collaborative Workstations and software designed to communicate with robots developed using vision systems and deep learning models. She is a member of the Vision Systems for Mechatronics division of the Laboratory of Mechanical and Thermal Measurements since her Ph. D. Despite her young age, she is the first author of several publications on this subject, exploiting the capabilities of intelligent algorithms for robotics and biomechanical measurements. She has wide experience in the development, training, and utilization of deep learning models for vision data and image processing techniques, which she also used to conduct research for industrial partners during her post-doctoral years. Her expertise also includes data management and dataset creation, since she authored a public dataset published during her Ph. D., 3D data elaboration and processing, and software deployment for target embedded hardware.
