Biography
I come from Ticino and studied in Lausanne, between UNIL and EPFL. After my PhD at UNIL in remote sensing, I was postdoc in Valencia (Spain), Boulder (CO) and EPFL, working on model adaptation and prior knowledge integration in machine learning. In 2014 I became Research Assistant Professor at University of Zurich, then Associate and Full professor at Wageningen University in the Netherlands. Since 2020 I lead the ECEO laboratory of EPFL, where we study Earth from above with machine learning, computer vision and remote sensing.Publications
