Marcello Restelli is Associate Professor of Computer Science and Engineer at the "Dipartimento di Elelttronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria" of the Politecnico di Milano. where he obtained the Laurea degree in Computer Science Engineering in 2000 and the Ph.D. in Information Engineering in 2004. From 2008 to 2019. He is currently teaching the “Machine Learning” course and he is a board member of the national Ph.D. programme in “Artificial Intelligence”.
His research interests focus on machine learning algorithms and, in particular, the development of reinforcement learning techniques and their application to real-world problems (e.g., robotics, finance, autonomous vehicles, water resource management, etc.).
He has published more than 150 peer-reviewed papers on some of the most prestigious international conferences and journals in the machine-learning and robotics fields. He has served as a reviewer for several international journals and he has been area chair and senior programme committee member of the main international conference of his research area, among which NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, AAAI, AISTATS, and IJCAI.

Since 2017 he is a scientific member of the "Osservatorio di Intelligenza Artificiale" at Politecnico di Milano.
He is the principal investigator of several research projects funded both by public entities and by some of the main Italian companies. Currently, he is involved in two European projects: CLINT (https://climateintelligence.eu/) and I3LUNG (https://www.facebook.com/I3LUNG/).
