Hello, I am Marco Basaldella. I work as Applied Scientist at Amazon Alexa in Cambridge, where I work on Semantic Parsing, Knowledge Base Question Answering, and Entity Linking, and I am also Affiliated Lecturer at the Language and Technology Lab at the University of Cambridge. I also occasionally write about artificial intelligence (in Italian) on my Medium blog or on my LinkedIn. You can see me here, speaking at TedX Varese (Italian again).

Ciao! Sono Marco Basaldella, Applied Scientist in Amazon Alexa a Cambridge, dove lavoro su Semantic Parsing, Knowledge Base Question Answering e Entity Linking, e Affiliated Lecturer al Language and Technology Lab all’Università di Cambridge. Ho un blog su Medium dove ogni tanto parlo di Intelligenza Artificiale, e quando possibile mi piace anche parlarne in pubblico (qua, per esempio, il mio intervento a TedX Varese).
In precedenza…
