Hi, I'm Giovanni

MSc student in Computer Engineering (Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning) · University of Calabria

I'm completing my Master's degree at the University of Calabria. I like problems where a claim can be tested, and I care about testing it properly: a validation set that is really only used for tuning, a comparison that is fair to the baseline, a result that comes with its limits.

My projects range from data pipelines and NLP to reinforcement learning, LLM agents with symbolic planning, computer vision and quantum optimization. Most of the code and notebook text is in Italian; the READMEs are in English.


Selected projects

Built with Paolo Pangallo. An AI shopping assistant around eBay, combining an MCP tool layer, agentic workflows and retrieval, with a FastAPI backend and a React interface.

Stack: Python · FastAPI · MCP · RAG · Qdrant · PostgreSQL · React · TypeScript

Built with Paolo Pangallo and Constantin Adrian Antoci. An end-to-end pipeline on Mastodon: it collects posts, estimates which ones were written by an AI using four independent detectors, checks verifiable claims with an LLM that cites its sources, and studies how content spreads through the network.

Stack: Python · FastAPI · React · TypeScript · PostgreSQL / SQLite · Transformers

What it shows: a complete pipeline from data collection to a tested web interface, comparison of detectors that disagree, and graph analysis (community detection, influence maximization, Monte Carlo diffusion).

Built with Paolo Pangallo. A generate–validate–refine workflow: an LLM writes PDDL from a story, Fast Downward checks it, and a reflection step repairs the errors.

Stack: Python · LangGraph · Ollama · Fast Downward · Flask

Currently

Completing my Master's thesis. This is my first professional search, and I'm open to roles where I can keep learning across machine learning, data and software.

Based in Italy.
