My main research area is integrating unstructured knowledge into deep learning models. I'm currently focusing on Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Argument Mining, a branch of NLP that aims at extracting arguments from unstructured texts.
I obtained my PhD from the University of Bologna in 2022 with the thesis ''\emph{Towards Integrating Unstructured Knowledge in Natural Language Processing}``. During my PhD I've defined the notion of Unstructured Knowledge Integration (UKI) and investigated its applications in the fields of Legal Analytics and Argument Mining.
I currently hold the position of Post-doc Research Fellow at the Computer Science and Engineering Department (DISI) of the University of Bologna. I'm part of the AI4Europe project on the development of horizontal matchmaking services that allow users to automatically retrieve AI assets like scientific papers, experts' profiles, and educational resources. I'm currently focusing on knowledge extraction and Neuro-symbolic research areas for UKI.
