Short biography

Angelo Genovese received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science in 2007, 2010, and 2014 respectively, from Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy. Since 2022 he is Associate Professor at Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy, Department of Computer Science. From 2019 to 2022 he was Assistant Professor at the Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy. Since 2015 he is a member of the Industrial, Environmental, and Biometric Informatics Laboratory (IEBIL). He was a Visiting Researcher at the University of Toronto, ON, Canada from June 2017 to August 2017 and from December 2019 to March 2020.

His research interests include signal and image processing, pattern recognition, three-dimensional reconstruction, artificial intelligence technologies, design methodologies, and algorithms for self-adapting systems, applied to industrial and environmental monitoring systems, medical imaging, and biometric recognition. In the biometrics field, his focuses are on highly usable touch-based and touchless recognition based on palmprint and fingerprint, as well as recognition based on soft biometric traits.

He is an Associate Editor of the Springer Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing (AIHC) and Elsevier Array. He was a Member of the Editorial Committee for the Elsevier Book Trends in Deep Learning Methodologies. He has served as Program Chair/Co-Chair for the IEEE Int. Conf. on Computational Intelligence and Virtual Environments for Measurement Systems and Applications (CIVEMSA) (2020, 2019, 2018) and the IEEE Workshop on Environmental, Energy, and Structural Monitoring Systems (EESMS) (2018, 2017).

He is a Senior Member of the IEEE, the IEEE Biometrics Council, the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society Task Force on Deep Learning, and the GRIN (Gruppo di Informatica). He is the Chair of the IEEE Italy Section Systems Council Chapter and the Co-Chair of the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society Technical Committee TC-22 - Intelligent Measurement Systems.
