معرفی
Michelangelo Ceci is a full professor at the Department of Computer Science, University of Bari, Italy. His academic career spans over two decades with significant contributions to data mining and machine learning research. He has established himself as a leading figure in the European data mining community through his extensive publication record and leadership roles in major conferences.
Dr. Ceci's primary research interests focus on data mining and machine learning, with particular emphasis on multi-relational data mining, text mining, spatial data mining, spatio-temporal data mining, and semi-supervised/transductive learning. His work bridges theoretical foundations with practical applications across diverse domains including social network analysis, financial technology, healthcare informatics, and environmental monitoring. His research demonstrates a consistent trajectory toward increasingly complex data structures and more sophisticated modeling techniques.
The most recent publications reveal several key trends: a growing focus on explainable AI systems, increased application of graph-based methods for spatio-temporal data, expansion into biomedical applications particularly in microbiome analysis, and development of robust methods for anomaly detection in cryptocurrency and social networks. His work increasingly integrates multiple data sources and perspectives through multi-view learning approaches.
Dr. Ceci has served on the program committees of major international conferences including IEEE ICDM, IJCAI, ECMLPKDD, SIAM SDM, ECAI, ISMIS, PAKDD, DEXA, and ACM SAC. He has held editorial positions with journals such as IJSNM, IJDATS, and Journal on Advances in Intelligent Systems, and has been actively involved in organizing conference tracks and workshops.
His research has been supported through significant projects including serving as national coordinator of FP7612944 MAESTRA and coordinator of a research unit in the PONREC project Vi-POC. He has participated in numerous national (PRIN-COFIN 2001, 2009) and international research projects (IST-1999-20882: COLLATE). Dr. Ceci has also contributed to the academic community through mentoring PhD students and early-career researchers, though specific names of advisees are not documented in the available information.
