Dr Luca Baldassarre

Research Interests:

  • Model-based machine learning and compressive sensing
  • Convex and discrete optimization

Biography

Luca received a M.Sc. in Physics in 2006 and a PhD in Machine Learning in 2010 at the University of Genoa, Italy.
He then joined the Computer Science Department of University College London, UK,  to work with Prof. Massimiliano Pontil on structured sparsity models for machine learning and convex optimization.
He was a postdoc with the LIONS of Prof. Volkan Cevher at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Switzerland from September 2012 to November 2015.
