Stefano Sarao Mannelli

I am Stefano Sarao Mannelli, a Senior Reseach Fellow working with Andrew Saxe at Gatsby and SWC (University College London). Prior to my current position, I held a postdoctoral position at the University of Oxford (still with Andrew Saxe) and obtained a Ph.D. in Physics applied to Machine Learning at the University of Paris-Saclay supervised by Lenka Zdeborova. My research focuses on analysing machine learning problems using a model-based approach, where the complexity of the problem is reduced to obtain a parsimonious solvable model that still captures the phenomenon of interest. In my previous works, I applied several variations of this approach to study problems in learning, such as transfer learning, continual learning, and curriculum learning.
