Andrea Piergentili

PhD student

    Short bio

    Andrea Piergentili is a PhD student at the University of Trento and Fondazione Bruno Kessler, where he works in the Machine Translation unit.

    He obtained his BD and MD in modern languages at the University of L'Aquila.
    His research focuses on gender-inclusive language in machine translation (MT).
    This involves avoiding discriminatory practices, such as misgendering, stereotypical associations, and exclusionary language, as a way to make MT fair and inclusive of all gender identities.

    Takeaway from our #2 DVPS consortium meeting: scaling with a few modalities won’t unlock the next leap. Progress we need to push in Europe now requires grounding intelligence in interaction and real-time feedback; we’re working on building the most promising MMFM architecture.

    Oggi 11 febbraio è la Giornata Internazionale delle Donne e delle Ragazze nella Scienza.

    Un’occasione per FBK di condividere e rilanciare il proprio impegno per l’uguaglianza di genere attraverso il Gender Equality Plan 2025-2028, recentemente approvato
