Personal profile
Professional Information
Dr. Lucas Rizzo received his Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence from the Technological University Dublin in 2020. Currently he is a Lecturer and MSc Coordinator at the same university. He has participated in a number of conferences and published several papers. Alongside research, he is currently supervising master students in data analytics and advanced software development. He has lectured several modules for undergraduate and graduate students in computer science, such as Object Oriented Programming, NoSQL databases and Data Wrangling (Python, R, and SQL). Previously he has worked as an optimisation analyst and performed research for the development of heuristics for computational hard problems.
Research Interests
Dr. Rizzo’s research focus is more specifically on automated reasoning and computational models of argument. Recently, he has been working in the field of XAI, trying to enhance computational argumentation and other knowledge-based systems through the use of machine learning algorithms and data-driven models.
