Hello everybody. In this page I summarize my working activity (research, teaching, etc...) as a statistician in Academia.  In each section you may also find some art pills: I hope you enjoy!

CURRICULUM VITAE

I am a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor (RTD-B) in "Statistics for Experimental and Technological Research" (SECS-S/02) at the Department of Economics at the University of Bergamo.

Currently, I am the Principal Investigator (PI) of the PRIN/PNRR project "SIGNUM: Study of mobile phone siGNals for the evalUation of the interconnections between Mobility and the environment in Lombardia " (CUP F53D23010910001)

I did my Bachelor and my Master in Statistics at the Department of Statistical Sciences "P. Fortunati" - University of Bologna, and I obtained there, in 2013, a Phd in Statistical Methodology for the Scientific Research.

In the past, I served Università of Salerno (Assistant Professor, July 2019 - July 2022), University of Brescia (Post-Doc, Lug 2016 - Giu-2019), S.Anna Pisa (Post-Doc, Sep 2015 - Jul 2016) and IMT School for Advanced Studies (Post-Doc, Jun 2013 - Sept 2015).

 

Research:

My research activity pertains with the statistical analysis of movements.

--> In Sports Analytics, where, to determine the probabilty to win the game and the players' marginal utility, the comprehension of the complex dynamic of the players' movements on the court is of fundamental importance. I contribute by matching Statistical Learning with Game Theory methods to assess the role of players movements and their position at the moment of their shot.  

--> In Traffic Management for urban areas, where, to gather information on origin-destination traffic flows and people movements, I match, analyse and model different sources of mobile phone data. Here, adapted versions of time series models for complex seasonalities are matched with function data (clustering) approaches to shed lights on the dynamic of traffic flows and their regularities

--> In International Trade, where, to understand the dynamics of the movemest of goods between sectors and between countries, origin-destionation and Input-Output matrices are analysed by means of the Gravity Model along with a spatial interaction approach and a forecast is obtained by means of adapted Matrix Completion methods. 

I have published in several international journals, such as: Statistical Methods & Applications, AStA Advances in Statistical Analysis, Journal of Applied Statistics, Annals of Operations Research (3 times), Social Indicator Research, Socio-Economic Planning Sciences, Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports, Electronic Journal of Applied Statistical Analysis, Statistics & Applications, Italian Journal of Applied Statistics, Econometrics, The World Economy, Advances in Water Resources, Economia Politica, Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, PlosOne, Physica A.
