Hey there👋, I am Giordano, a Computer Science Engineer and Ph.D. student in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) at Sapienza University of Rome.

I am a member👨‍🔬 of the ISPAMM Lab, supervised by professor Danilo Comminiello and my main research topic is Representation Learning.

I completed both the BSc and the MSc at Sapienza University Of Rome, both in Computer Science Engineering🎓.

My research is focused on the field of Representation Learning, with a particular emphasis on Multimodal Representation Learning. My aim is to explore the intricate alignment of latent representations across diverse modalities, unraveling how these can be unified within a shared latent space, guided by the underlying semantics of the input data
