Emanuele Panizon
Researcher at Laboratory of Data Engineering

I am a Permanent Researcher at the Research and Innovation Technology Institute (RIT) at Area Science Park in Trieste, where I am interested in the Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence and its applications to material sciences.

My research interests lay at the boundary between statistical mechanics and deep learning to design advanced computational architectures.
