Enrico Piazza is a PhD student, joint programme at Politecnico di Milano advised by Prof. Matteo Matteucci, and at Instituto Superior Técnico (Lisbon, Portugal) advised by Prof. Pedro Lima.
He is mainly interested in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics research topics such as Service Robotics, Robotics Competitions, Benchmarking and Robotics Software Engineering. In 2016 he received his M.Sc. in Computer Engineering from the Politecnico di Milano with the thesis entitled "Toward Realtime Manifold Mesh Reconstruction From Sparse Data". In 2017 he obtained a one-year grant from Politecnico di Milano to work on Benchmarking of robots in the European Robotics League. During this time he developed software and participated to the organisation of robotics competitions. In 2018 he started his PhD programme on Probabilistic Benchmarking in ISR/IST (Instituto de Sistemas e Robótica/Instituto Superior Técnico).
During his time in ISR/IST, he joined the SocRob team as a member first and later took the role of team leader, and collaborated on the software development of ISR's Service Robot platform MBot. While in the team, he worked on different topics, including Object Perception, Semantic Mapping, Task execution, and participated to the ERL and RoboCup Service Robotics competition.
