About
I'm Alessandro, currently a MSc Student in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics at La Sapienza University of Rome. I have a strong drive to deeply understand complex systems and to contribute to innovative solutions in the fields of AI and Robotics. My academic and personal projects span a wide range of topics, from Reinforcement Learning and Computer Vision to Quadrotor Motion Control, Multi-Robot Decentralized Control, and Symbolic Robotics Modelling, since I'm fascinated by both the theoretical foundations and the practical implementation of such fields.
