Biography

Marco Virgolin is a junior researcher (tenure track) at CWI. He works on eXplainable AI (XAI), most notably by means of Symbolic Regression to obtain interpretable models. He is also interested in medical applications of machine learning, conversational AI, and human-machine interaction. Before, Marco was a postdoc with Mattias Wahde at Chalmers University of Technology, a PhD student with Peter A. N. Bosman and Tanja Alderliesten at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica, and a master student with Alberto Bartoli and Eric Medvet at the Machine Learning Lab of the University of Trieste.
