Welcome
I am Martino, PhD Student at the Open University. I graduated in Software Engineering and I am intrigued by Natural Language Processing, backend development, and Python. I love open source and I maintain many repositories on GitHub.
Short bio
My path in Computer Science begins with my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Software Engineering at Polytechnic University of Turin. During my Master’s thesis “Deep Semantic Learning for Conversational Agents”, under the supervision of Giuseppe Rizzo (from Istituto Superiore Mario Boella) and Maurizio Morisio (professor in DAUIN), I dived into the academic world. In that period I did my first steps in the Machine Learning area, focusing on the conversational domain.
For my next professional step, I worked as Research Assistant in the Knowledge Media Institute, part of The Open University. Here I participated in different projects, varying from conversational agents to misinformation (more details here).
On October 2019 I started my PhD at The Open University. During my PhD I am analysing how specific topics are portrayed by news outlets coming from different political leanings.
