Hi! I am Claudio. Thanks for visiting my website and for your time.
I am a mathematician working with mathematics of AI and machine learning at Harvard’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences under the mentorship of Flavio Calmon. My research focuses on trustworthy machine learning, exploring concepts such as fairness and arbitrariness, and also on mechanistic interpretability techniques for large generative models. In particular, I tried to understand how parsimonious models, particularly sparsity, can be used to leverage the understanding of machine learning. Over the years, I’ve harnessed optimization, statistics, and signal processing techniques to advance both the theory and practice of artificial intelligence. My work includes developing provably fast and scalable methods for machine learning models and creating uncertainty quantification techniques for high-dimensional problems involving large datasets. I’m also passionate about applying these advanced techniques to practical domains, such as medical imaging (particularly MRI) and the use of AI for education.
I had the privilege of completing my Ph.D. in mathematics under the guidance of Felix Krahmer within the Optimization and Data Analysis group, while concurrently affiliated to the Information Theory group under the leadership of Holger Boche at the Technical University of Munich.
