My name is Roberto Amoroso. I am an ELLIS PhD student enrolled in the International Doctorate in ICT program at the AImageLab research group of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, under the supervision of Prof. Rita Cucchiara and Prof. Lorenzo Baraldi. I am involved in the study and development of novel Computer Vision and Deep Learning techniques. Prior to joining AImageLab, I was Research Scholar at the Networking Research Group in Saint Louis, USA, working on Super-resolution techniques applied to Internet traffic matrices.
My primary research focus is on Image Segmentation, which includes multimodal machine learning approaches for learning new semantic concepts from textual information in a weakly/un-supervised way, aka Open-vocabulary Segmentation. In addition, I have also conducted research on the optimization of Transformer-based architecture for image classification.
My primary area of research is Image Segmentation, with a focus on multimodal machine learning approaches for learning new semantic concepts from textual information in a weakly or unsupervised manner, also known as Open-vocabulary Segmentation. In addition, I have also conducted research on the optimization of Transformer-based architecture for image classification, self-supervised learning techniques, deepfake detection of synthetic images, and the development of image watermarking systems for artwork protection.
Feel free to reach me out if you have any questions or curiosities! :)
