🎙️ Participating in DAC, The Chips to Systems Conference has been great as always! 🚀 💡 So many insights on how chip design is moving into the agentic AI era. It was also important to share the work done by the SMILIES Polito Research Group neuromorphic team 🧠⚡ with the Spiker and SpikerLL platform 🔗 […]

🏆 Small update from DAC, The Chips to Systems Conference: I was recognized as an Outstanding TPC Member. 📝 Reviewing papers is unglamorous work: reading submissions at odd hours, arguing in calibration meetings about what "novel" actually means, writing reviews you hope are useful rather than just polite. So it's nice when that work gets […]

At #DAC2026, I got to stand at the University Demo booth and talk about Spiker, the SNN framework from our group, SMILIES Polito Research Group to people from across the field. https://github.com/smilies-polito/Spiker As a young researcher, it’s humbling to step into an environment this competitive and this fast-moving; where the state of the art shifts […]

As I reflect on the past year, I would like to take a moment to look back on an important chapter of my academic journey that concluded earlier this year with the successful defense of my PhD thesis. My PhD thesis, titled "Fast and Accurate Prediction of the Impact of Approximate Operators on a Complex […]

🙏 A big thank you to Centro 3R for featuring our #CompBioFab Special Session on #IntelligentBiofabrication in their September newsletter! It's listed under BIOSTEC Conference in Valletta, Malta (19–21 Feb 2027) and takes you straight to our call for papers & abstracts (https://biostec.scitevents.org/CompBioFab.aspx). If you don't know Centro 3R yet, it's an Italian interuniversity network […]

💫 Happy to share that yesterday I presented our novel research work on the EHWGesture dataset! The paper titled "Fake It Till You Make It: Investigating the Impact of Simulated Sensor Modalities on Clinical Gesture Understanding" was presented at the Neuromorphic Vision (NeVi) Workshop 3rd edition at European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) 2026! 🔎 […]

⏳ Three months to go! The deadline to submit a full paper or abstract to the CompBioFab 2027 Special Session on Intelligent Biofabrication: Models, Data & Reproducible Benchmarks is 3 December 2026. The session will take place at BIOSTEC Conference 2027, 19–21 February 2027, in Valletta, Malta. I’m delighted to co-chair #CompBioFab together with Laurence […]

If you are attending #ISVLSI2026 in Kolkata (India), do not miss Alessio Caviglia’s presentation of “SPIKER-LL: An Energy-Efficient FPGA Accelerator Enabling Adaptive Local Learning in Spiking Neural Networks” (July 8th, 2026 5:00 PM local time) The focus is on integrating the STSF local learning rule into the Spiker+ neuromorphic architecture, adding on-device training capabilities with […]

Back from an amazing IEEE IOLTS – IEEE International Symposium on On-Line Testing and Robust System Design 2026 in Polignano a Mare! Had a fantastic time presenting our work on InjectV and getting to know so many researchers in the testing and robust system design community. InjectV is a gem5-based fault injection framework for RISC-V […]

Two weeks in University of Waterloo at the Nengo Summer School I went there to learn about Neuromorphic Computing. I came back having learned something harder to put on a CV, though I’m still not sure what to call it. The project: gesture recognition with a spiking CNN, mapped to robot movements, with a continual […]
