Giovanni Monea

Hey there! I’m Giovanni, a third-year Computer Science PhD student at Cornell, advised by Yoav Artzi. I hold an MSc in Computer Science from EPFL and a BSc in Engineering of Computing Systems from Politecnico di Milano.

I’m fascinated by memory in machine learning. These days I mostly work on how language models build and use it, often by designing new architectures.

I’ve been lucky to work with a number of amazing collaborators. Most recently, I interned at IBM’s T.J. Watson Research Center, working with Ramón Fernandez Astudillo, and throughout my PhD I’ve also been closely mentored by Kianté Brantley. Earlier, I worked with Bob West at EPFL, and interned at Microsoft Research with Michel Galley and at Apple MLR with Edouard Grave.
