Artificial Intelligence for Astrophysics

I am a postdoctoral research fellow at Politecnico di Milano, working at the intersection of artificial intelligence and astrophysics. I develop methods that combine spectra, images, time series, and scientific literature to study rare astronomical sources and transient phenomena. My research spans multimodal representation learning, explainable AI, gravitationally lensed transients, and the search for candidate pulsating ultraluminous X-ray sources.

I collaborate with INAF’s Osservatorio Astronomico di Roma and AstroAI at the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian. I also work on time-series anomaly detection, predictive maintenance, and language-model applications for energy efficiency, and lead Work Package 3 of the Horizon Europe ENERGENIUS project.

I completed my PhD in Information Technology at Politecnico di Milano in June 2026, with the thesis “Making discoveries with multimodal astrophysics.”
