About me
Name: Marilena Palomba
Title: PhD Student
Affiliation: IDSIA USI-SUPSI (University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI) - Dalle Molle Institute for Artificial Intelligence (IDSIA) - Università della Svizzera italiana (USI))
Bio:
I am a Ph.D. student in Theoretical Computer Science at IDSIA USI-SUPSI, working in the Algorithms and Complexity group under the supervision of Professor M. Mastrolilli.
My research focuses on the computational complexity of sum-of-squares bounds for copositive programs and, more generally, the bit complexity of sum-of-squares proofs and refutations.
I hold a Master's degree in Theoretical and Applied Mathematics from the University of Bologna and a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from the University of Udine.
Before starting my Ph.D., I gained experience as a technology consultant at Accenture and as a quantitative risk analyst at EY.
