Funny caricature of Davide

Welcome to my website

Since September 2026, I am an Associate Professor (Maître de conférences) in the VERTIGO team in the Center for Studies and Research in Computer Science and Communication (CEDRIC) at Conservatoire National Des Arts et Métiers (CNAM) in Paris. My research lies at the intersection of machine learning and statistical mechanics. I develop machine learning methods inspired by statistical physics, as well as AI techniques to tackle challenging computational problems in statistical mechanics, with a particular focus on generative modeling and advanced sampling methods.

Previously, I was a Fellow in Artificial Intelligence at PRAIRIE-PSAI / PSL University and a postdoctoral researcher at the Laboratoire de Physique de l’ENS (LPENS), working in the Disordered Systems and Applications team, in particular with Marylou Gabrié. I also closely collaborated with Tony Lelièvre and Gabriel Stoltz. I had the pleasure to work with Lamberto Rondoni and Eric Vanden-Eijnden during my PhD.

Outside of research, I enjoy playing piano and synthesizer in a band, reading science fiction, and dancing for fun.
