Agnese Bonavita
Data Science Ph.D. Student (Cycle 34)
Bio:
Agnese Bonavita was born in 1993 in Genoa, Italy. In 2015 she graduated in Physics (bachelor degree) at University of Genoa and in 2018 she graduated in High Energy Physics (master degree) at Pisa University with a thesis on a rare Higgs decay at CMS experiment (CERN).
She had research experiences in the two most important particle physics laboratories: Fermilab (Chicago, USA) as summer students and Cern (Geneve,CH) as undergraduate student.
She's currently a Ph.D. fellow in Data Science in the joint program offered by Scuola Normale Superiore, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, University of Pisa, IMT Lucca and National Research Council.
Research Interest:
Her research project, included in the smart cities area, is about human mobility models and predictions. In particular her research interest is on electric vehicles simulations in order to understand the benefits of this new technology and on developing a deep learning method able to predict car accidents and improve risk assesment analysis. For a year she took part of the Track&Know project included in Horizon 2020 project which aims to research, develop and exploit a new software framework that aims at increasing the efficiency of Big Data in the mobility field.
