Piercarlo Dondi

Piercarlo Dondi serves as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Electrical, Computer and Biomedical Engineering, University of Pavia, Italy. He teaches 'Algorithms and Data Structures' for the Bachelor's Degree in Artificial Intelligence and 'Digital Media' for the Bachelor's Degree in Comunicazione, Innovazione, Multimedialità (CIM), demonstrating strong commitment to interdisciplinary technical education.

His academic foundation includes:

• Master's degree in Computer Engineering (2008), University of Pavia
• PhD in Electronics, Computer Science and Electrical Engineering (2012), University of Pavia

Dr. Dondi's research spans Computer Vision, Human-Computer Interaction, Computer Graphics, and Digital Humanities with pronounced emphasis on cultural heritage applications. His work consistently bridges technical innovation and humanities through projects analyzing historical musical instruments (Stradivarius violins), fresco fragments, and UVIFL imaging techniques. This interdisciplinary approach manifests in collaborations across European universities and research centers, focusing on practical implementations of augmented reality, gesture interfaces, and 3D modeling for cultural preservation.

As an active academic contributor, he serves as reviewer for international journals and conferences, co-organized workshops at ICPR2020 and ICIAP2021, and acted as Guest Editor for Pattern Recognition Letters. His publication record exceeds 50 articles in international venues.

Dr. Dondi has supervised over 25 theses across Bachelor's and Master's programs, guiding research in eye-tracking biometrics, deep learning damage detection, touchless interfaces, and augmented reality systems for cultural artifacts. His advising portfolio reflects consistent focus on human-centered computing applications.

He operates within the Computer Vision and Multimedia Laboratory (CVMLab) at University of Pavia, which maintains infrastructure for advanced research in computer vision, multimedia processing, and their real-world implementations, particularly in cultural heritage digitization and human-computer interaction systems.
