Timau a rolau for Federico Liberatore
Uwch Ddarlithydd mewn Deallusrwydd Artiffisial a Dadansoddi Data
Trosolwyg
Mae Federico Liberatore yn Uwch Ddarlithydd mewn Peirianneg Data a Gwybodaeth yn yr Ysgol Cyfrifiadureg a Gwybodeg, Prifysgol Caerdydd. Mae hefyd yn gyn-fyfyriwr Fulbright ac yn derbyn nifer o wobrau ymchwil. Ei brif feysydd arbenigedd yw Optimization Combinatorial a Gwyddor Data.
Ar hyn o bryd, mae ei ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar fodelau mathemategol ar gyfer plismona, diogelwch a diogelwch personol. Mae'n cydweithio'n weithredol ag asiantaethau gorfodi'r gyfraith ar brosiectau gan gynnwys plismona rhagfynegol, patrolio craff, ac atal ffemicidau.
Hefyd, mae gan Federico brofiad ymchwilydd perthnasol mewn Rheoli Trychinebau a Logisteg Ddyngarol . Mae wedi cymhwyso modelau mathemategol i liniaru effaith trychinebau naturiol a bwriadol ac i gynllunio ar gyfer gweithrediadau ymateb brys.
Yn olaf, mae Federico yn defnyddio modelau Dysgu Peiriant ad hoc i ganfod cyflyrau sy'n peryglu bywyd ac amcangyfrif eu difrifoldeb a'r risg i gleifion.
