About me:
I Ph.D at INSAIT, supervised by Dr. Danda Pani Paudel and Prof. Luc Van Gool. My research explores how models can maintain a consistent understanding of an environment over time, including information that is no longer visible, with a focus on visual memory for long term video understanding.
I previously completed my B.Sc. at University of Bologna and my M.Sc. at ETH Zurich. I have worked on 3D vision, egocentric video understanding and the evaluation of multimodal models.
