About me

Pier Balestrucci

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Bari and a Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Turin. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Computer Science at the University of Turin, specialising in Computational Linguistics.

My research combines computational methods, linguistic insights and human-centred evaluation. I collaborate with Laboratorio Polin on accessible AI and work on perspective-aware language modelling in collaboration with Amazon Alexa.
