Alessio Miaschi

I am a full-time researcher (RTD) at the ItaliaNLP Lab, Institute for Computational Linguistics “A. Zampolli” (CNR-ILC, Pisa). In 2022, I received my PhD in Computer Science at the University of Pisa.
My research revolves around the study of computational models of language, with a specific focus on Language Models (LMs). In particular, I am interested in the interpretability of large-scale LMs and in the analysis of their internal representations, with the goal of understanding how these models acquire, organize, and exhibit linguistic knowledge. Within this framework, I work on evaluating the linguistic competence of LMs and on developing methods to analyze their behavior with respect to specific language phenomena. Alongside this, I am involved in the development of NLP tools with a strong applied orientation, designed for use in concrete domains such as education, software analysis, and Digital Humanities.
In my free time, I enjoy watching movies, listening to music, and reading books.
