Welcome to the SmartTalks!
Our webinars will happen on Monday at 5:00 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:
Eliana Pastor and Matteo Boffa.

Presenter: Rodolfo ValentimMonday, December 19th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Current solutions to tackle phishing employ blocklists that are built from user reports or automatic approaches. They, however, fall short in detecting zero-day phishing attacks. We propose the use of data-driven systems to automate the generation of new squatting candidates starting from […]
Presenter: Andrea CavalloMonday, December 5th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) achieve state-of-the-art performance on several tasks on graph-structured data. Their success is related to their capability to generate embeddings that model the entire neighborhood of a node, instead of just the node itself. This approach is very effective on homophilous graphs, i.e. […]
Presenter: Tiziano BianchiWednesday, June 22nd, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Deep networks have shown remarkable performance in complex visual and classification tasks. However, their use in security sensitive applications raises serious concerns, as they can be targeted by adversaries. One of the most severe threats is represented by adversarial perturbations, a collection […]
Presenter: Guido Marchetto and Alessio SaccoWednesday, June 8th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Recent management and orchestration approaches for softwarized networks employ Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to further reduce reaction time and improve the accuracy of decisions, while automating network operations to ultimately facilitate the deployment of new interactive […]
Presenter: Andrea De MartinoWednesday, May 25th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Intracellular metabolic activity (e.g. reaction fluxes and metabolite levels) is largely inaccessible to experiments. I will describe recent work aimed at constructing generative models of cellular metabolism through statistical inference from empirical data. After motivating why this problem is worth the […]
Presenter: Jost von HardenbergWednesday, May 11th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Numerical global climate modelling with Earth-system models is currently one of the main tools available for studying processes and feedbacks at work in the climate system, attribution of climate change, projection of future climate change scenarios and the development and planning […]
Presenter: Luca ColombaMonday, April 27th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Clustering is among the most popular unsupervised data mining tasks. Within the years, density-based clustering algorithms proved to be one of the most prominent strategies to identify clusters and noisy points. Such methodology encompasses a large variety of clustering algorithms that focus […]
Presenter: Alberto ViglioneWednesday, April 6th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Flood-related economic losses have increased dramatically over the past decades in most parts of the world, and are expected to increase in the future due to climate dynamics and increasing exposure. From a practical perspective, it is of interest to estimate the […]
Presenter: Salvatore GrecoWednesday, March 23rd, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio Despite the significant improvements made by deep learning models, their adoption in real-world dynamic applications is still limited. Concept drift is among the open issues preventing the widespread exploitation of deep learning models in real-life settings. The dynamic world changes very quickly, […]
Presenter: Paolo BethazMonday, March 9th, 2022 17:00Location: SmartData@Covivio A Predictive Maintenance strategy for a complex machine requires a sophisticated and non-trivial analytical stage to provide accurate and trusted predictions. Manufacturing industries are not only interested in identifying a failure in advance, but they also want to have continuous monitoring of […]
Presenter: Francesco ManigrassoMonday, February 21th, 2022 17:30Location: SmartData@Covivio Neural-Symbolic techniques, such as Logic Tensor Networks (LTNs), allow the combination of semantic knowledge representation and reasoning with the ability to efficiently learn from examples typical of neural networks.We focus here on the subsumption of isOfClass predicate, which is fundamental to encode […]
