معرفی
Giorgio Stefano Gnecco is a Full Professor in Mathematical Methods of Economics and of Actuarial and Financial Sciences at IMT School for Advanced Studies Lucca, where he works within the Analysis of compleX Economic Systems (AXES) research unit. His academic career spans multiple disciplines including optimization, machine learning, game theory, and their applications in economics, finance, and engineering.
His research interests focus on optimization applied to actuarial sciences, economics, finance, and engineering; game theory; statistics; machine learning theory and applications; causal inference for economic policy evaluation; and environmental economics. His work demonstrates interdisciplinary connections between mathematical theory and practical applications across diverse fields, with particular emphasis on developing computational methods for complex economic systems.
His publication record shows consistent output across multiple domains, with recent work spanning machine learning algorithms, image processing techniques, economic modeling, and applications in music performance analysis. The breadth of his research indicates strong methodological foundations in mathematical optimization and statistical learning, applied to problems ranging from flood hazard assessment to Parkinson's disease classification.
Among his notable achievements are five Italian National Scientific Qualifications for professorial positions in various fields, demonstrating his recognized expertise across multiple academic disciplines. He serves as Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, Action Editor for Neural Networks, and Associate Editor for Neurocomputing.
Professor Gnecco leads numerous research projects including the "PRIN PNRR 2022" project "MOTUS - Automated Analysis and Prediction of Human Movement Qualities," the "INdAM-GNAMPA 2023" project on machine learning methods for Shapley Value estimation, and the "ROBOFARM" project on edge computing for precision agriculture. He has coordinated multiple international research collaborations between Italy and France through the Galileo program.
His research unit (AXES) focuses on complex economic systems analysis, with applications spanning environmental economics, financial systems, and human movement analysis. The collaborative nature of his work is evident through his extensive network of domestic and international collaborators across multiple universities and research institutions.
