Marta Moscati

I am a physicist turned computer scientist, currently a PhD student at the Multimedia Mining and Search Group of the Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria.

My (current) fields of research are multimodal learning and recommender systems. I have a PhD in theoretical particle physics.

I love understanding and discussing maths and science. I have a passion for music and books. I enjoy doing sports. I have a thing for languages.
