معرفی
Paolo Ciampolini is a full Professor in the Department of Engineering and Architecture at the University of Parma, Italy. He has been a permanent faculty member since 2001 and previously held academic positions at the University of Perugia and the University of Bologna. He is actively involved in teaching, research, and international collaboration, particularly in electronics, digital design, and ICT for health. He serves as the European Coordinator of the ERASMUS+ GREATER project and is a visiting professor at INES-Ruhengeri in Rwanda.
Research Interests:
- Development of semiconductor device models and simulation tools
- High-frequency circuits and signal integrity in ICs
- Radiation-hardened circuits for high-energy physics (collaboration with CERN and INFN)
- Assistive technologies and IoT for Active and Assisted Living
- Non-invasive monitoring using sensor networks and machine learning
- Low-power and VLSI digital design
His recent publications focus on sleep posture classification using accelerometer and vision-based CNN systems, contactless sleep monitoring with smart beds, and machine learning for heartbeat detection from ballistocardiographic signals. These works highlight a strong trend toward applying electronics and AI to healthcare challenges, particularly for elderly and disabled individuals.
