Stefano is from Italy and holds a BSc in Economics and Computer Science and an MSc in Data Science from Bocconi University. During his studies, he developed a strong interest in the philosophical, theoretical, and practical aspects of the Bayesian methodology. In his master’s thesis, Stefano studied multivariate species sampling models, a recent attempt to define a unifying framework for discrete dependent nonparametric priors. In his spare time, Stefano enjoys playing chess and hiking. At StatML, he wishes to strengthen his knowledge of Bayesian nonparametrics and Bayesian computation, and to explore areas of statistical machine learning with which he is less familiar.
