Alessandro Lucantonio

Associate Professor @ Department of Mechanical and Production Engineering, Aarhus University

About

At Aarhus University, I lead the Computational Physics and Machine Learning Lab, where we develop ML/AI models for physics-based simulation. We apply our algorithms to tackle challenges in human health, digitalization, and the green transition. We focus on translating research into innovation by building ML models that are reliable and safe by design, optimized for industrial edge deployment, and contribute to increaing the resilience of AI workflows in real-world settings.
