Emilio Dorigatti
About
I have a Bachelor's in Computer Science and a double Master's degree (from the Technical University of Eindhoven and from the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm) in Data Science obtained through the EIT Digital Master's School, as well as a minor degree in Innovation & Entrepreneurship.
My PhD is about incorporating uncertainty in the design of personalized vaccines for cancer, done in collaboration with the Institute of Computational Biology at the Helmholtz Zentrum. It revolves around two central topics: (1) design vaccines through discrete optimization, in particular mixed integer linear (stochastic) programming, and (2) improve the predictions of pivotal quantities, with a particular focus on uncertainty, needed to design vaccines, mainly through deep semi-supervised and/or multiple-instance learning.
I am part of the Methods Beyond Supervised Learning and Probabilistic Machine and Deep Learning research groups.
