Luca Scofano
I'm a Senior AI Researcher at Translated, pre-training large language models from the ground up. Lately I've been building the language core of DVPS, a Horizon Europe project on multimodal AI that learns from vision and the physical world alongside text.
Most of my published work is in Multimodal AI, topology, and embodied AI. Before Translated, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at Sapienza University and a Visiting Researcher at TU Darmstadt.
Off the clock, I'm usually trekking, taking photos, or making art.
