1. A multi-agent system (MAS) approach to model news spreading
2. A multi-agent system (MAS) modelisation of the mobility by public
transport in the City of
Turin
3. Quickest detection and failure time problems for industrial data
4. Machine learning in public health
5. Time changed multivariate stochastic models: calibration and fit on
financial data.
6. Computable inference for hidden Markov models with orthogonal polynomial
eigenstructure
7. Parallel programming models for modern applications: AI and Big Data
8. Privacy-preserving machine learning in complex domains
9. Algorithms and techniques for analyzing vast non-specialized textual
corpora in order to extract complex features relevant to conceptual history
and the history of argumentation. (research project linked to the
scholarship funded by Dipartimento di Filosofia e Scienze dell’Educazione –
excellence Department research)
