All projects

I focus on studying how to make current ML models understand their surroundings more efficiently. Here is a list of some projects I've worked on, enjoy.

Real or Realistic? What is more important? Let's imagine me

Are these pictures real? Is it ok to use AI for your next passport picture? for your linkedin? In a world where AI blurs the line between real and artificial, can you distinguish between genuine and AI-generated images? Does it even matter?
