Work experience

  • June 2023 – April 2024, Data Scientist, Silk Shells Consulting SRL
    • Development and Deployment of an Automated Resume Classification System.

My research focuses on the application of Large Language Models (LLMs), with particular emphasis on constrained decoding techniques based on formal languages, to steer LLM during its generation phase.

In addition, my work explores Machine Translation System from natural language to sign languages (LIS and ASL), with the aim to develop inclusive solutions and enhancing communicative accessibility.
