Presenter: Andrea SordelloThursday, June 19th, 2025, 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT Passive network measurement traditionally emphasizes inbound traffic for detecting threats and monitoring performance. Outbound traffic generated by internal hosts that fail to reach valid destinations or contains error messages remains largely unexplored. We investigate the […]

Welcome to the SmartTalks!
Our webinars will happen on Monday at 5:30 PM.
Talks will be a networking opportunity that will allow you to present your research project at a high level. They will last between 10 to 20 minutes and will be followed by a Q&A session, starting from two spectators designated by the presenter.
Smart Talks are organized in collaboration with the IEEE Student Branch and with the Mu Nu Chapter of IEEE – HKN.
Current chairs and organizers:
Geta Vallero and Nikhil Jha.

Presenter: Kai HuangThursday, June 5th, 2025, 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT The rapid evolution of cyber threats and the increasing sophistication of cyberattacks have made digital forensics a cornerstone of modern cybersecurity. In this context, Large Language Models (LLMs) present a compelling opportunity to augment cybersecurity […]
Presenter: Pierrick LeroyThursday, May 8th, 2025, 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT Face Recognition (FR) tasks have significantly progressed with the advent of Deep Neural Networks, particularly through margin-based triplet losses that embed facial images into high-dimensional feature spaces. During training, these contrastive losses focus exclusively on […]
Presenter: Giordano PaolettiThursday, April 10th, 2025, 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT Telegram has emerged as a pivotal platform for political discourse, particularly regarding high-stakes events such as the 2024 US elections. In this ongoing project, we leverage network analysis and advanced NLP techniques to analyze a […]
Presenter: Matteo BoffaThursday, March 27th, 2025, 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT Recent research has explored the constrained generation capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) when explicitly prompted by few task-specific requirements. In contrast, we introduce Large-Scale Constraint Generation (LSCG), a new problem that evaluates whether LLMs […]
Presenter: Karol CascavitaThursday, March 13th, 2025, 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT The Virtual Element Method was introduced in 2013 in the seminal work [1]. It is nowadays considered to be an extension of the Finite Element Methods to more general meshes. The cornerstone is the ability to build […]
Presenter: Gabriele Scaffidi MilitoneMonday, January 27th, 2025, 5:30 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT The advent of the cloud continuum marks a significant step forward in computing, enabling the seamless integration of resources spanning edge, private, and public clouds. This paradigm shift offers significant opportunities. However, effectively orchestrating […]
Presenter: Andrea PignataMonday, December 16th, 5:30 PMLocation: Sala Grande Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT This research explores the development of an engineering framework for edge-based Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) sensor solutions, addressing challenges in heterogeneous hardware and advanced paradigms like neuromorphic computing, while leveraging the benefits of edge-based solutions. […]
Presenter: Stephany Ortuno ChaneloMonday, October 21st, 2024 5:30 PMLocation: Sala Grande Polito@Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT With increasing demand for efficiency in industrial settings, the need for advanced robotic systems has become essential. Automatic bin picking, a key task in automation, enhances performances, providing a competitive advantage. This project proposes […]
Presenter: Kai HuangMonday, July 15th, 2024 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Piccola Polito@Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT Network telescopes are ranges of IP addresses with nothing connected. They are contacted by botnets and scanners that look for possible victims. Each telescope exposes a partial view, and merging the information with that coming […]
Presenter: Francesco De SantisMonday, July 1st, 2024 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Piccola Polito@Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT Despite their success, Large-Language Models (LLMs) still face criticism as their lack of interpretability limits their controllability and reliability. Traditional post-hoc interpretation methods, based on attention and gradient-based analysis, offer limited insight into the […]
Presenter: Riccardo PignariMonday, June 17th, 2024 5:00 PMLocation: Sala Piccola Polito@Covivio, Corso Ferrucci 112 ABSTRACT The field of machine learning is rapidly gaining prominence on the IoT edge device. Within the domain of neuromorphics, the goal is to replicate the capabilities of the human brain and its fundamental processing unit, […]
