Hi! I'm Alessandro, I am a Ph.D. student in Graph Deep Learning.
I'm part of the Graph Machine Learning Group which is a research team of the Swiss AI Lab IDSIA, under the supervision of Professor Cesare Alippi.


Publications

In this paper, we highlight a challenge in Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), demonstrating that traditional methods struggle to learn hidden relational structures and their uncertainties. We propose a new approach that jointly learns these latent graph structures while enhancing prediction accuracy, and we provide empirical evidence to support the developed theoretical results.
