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” and the “Information Retrieval and Data Mining” courses and he is a board member of the Ph.D. programme in “Data Science and Computation”.
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 100 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 a member of the programme committee of the main international conference of his research area, among which NIPS, AAAI, and IJCAI.
