Stefano Sarao Mannelli

Prof. Stefano Sarao Mannelli

Stefano is a tunure-track Assistant Professor in the Data Science and AI division in the Computer Science department of Chalmers University of Technology and Gothenburg University, and Visiting Lecturer a University of the Witwatersrand. His research focuses on analysing machine learning problems using a model-based approach, where the complexity of the problem is reduced to obtain a parsimonious solvable model that still captures the phenomenon of interest. In his previous works, he applied several variations of this approach to study problems in learning, such as transfer learning, continual learning, and curriculum learning.
