Elias Bassani
Hello there! 👋
My name is Elias Bassani, and I am an AI Researcher at the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre, where I work on AI safety within the Cybersecurity and Digital Technologies Unit.
Prior to this, I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Milano-Bicocca. My research focused on proposing novel approaches for Personalized Search based on Neural Networks.
My work appeared in top-ranked Information Retrieval and Natural Language Processing venues (EMNLP, NAACL, SIGIR, CIKM, ECIR) and Q1 Journals (Information Fusion, Transaction on Information Systems).
I have also authored multiple open-source tools in Python with a focus on efficiency and usability.
If you want to know more about my research and projects, please check out the other sections of this website.
If interested, we can get in touch by e-mail.
