Lorenzo Baraldi

Lorenzo Baraldi is a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor (RTD-B) at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. He works under the supervision of Prof. Rita Cucchiara on Deep Learning, Video Analysis and Multimedia, and teaches in the courses of "Computer Vision and Cognitive Systems" and Scalable AI. Among his research interests, he worked on Egocentric Vision and Gesture Recognition, Temporal Video Segmentation and Retrieval, Saliency, Video Captioning, Visual-Semantic alignment and Embodied AI.

He is the author of more than 100 publications in international journals and conferences, and serves as Associate Editor for Pattern Recognition Letters and as Area Chair for major multimedia conferences. He has been elected as a Scholar in the ELLIS society, the European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems, and coordinates the Modena ELLIS Unit. Together with Prof. Costantino Grana, in 2017, he has organized the 13th Italian Research Conference on Digital Libraries. Since 2021, he has been appointed as deputy director of the Interdepartmental Center on Digital Humanities of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia.

In 2016, together with Prof. Rita Cucchiara, Prof. Costantino Grana and Dr. Simone Calderara, he has been author of the winning proposal for the Facebook AI Research Partnership, with which AImageLab has been selected as one of the 15 world-class research labs in Europe to receive a GPU-based server. In 2017, he worked in the Facebook AI Research laboratory in Paris, under the supervision of Hervé Jégou, where he developed a video copy detection algorithm that has been adopted in production on the social network.

He is a member of IEEE, ACM and CVPL, the Italian Association for Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning.
