Biography
Welcome! I’m Manuel, a first-year PhD student in the ELLIS program, jointly affiliated with the Italian Institute of Technology and Oxford University, under the supervision of Alessio Del Bue and Michael Bronstein. My research explores how topological and geometric methods can enhance deep learning models, enabling them to better capture and utilize the intrinsic structure of data.
