I am a member of the Software Engineering Research Group - SeSa Lab - at the University of Salerno, Italy. My main research interest is in Software Engineering. During my Bachelor's and Master's at the University of Salerno, I took part in several group projects and fell in love with the field.
My Master's thesis was focused on Machine Learning for Vulnerability Prediction. I studied two state-of-the-art vulnerabiliy prediction models and the impact that a release-based validation method has on their performance. My work The Impact of Release-based Validation on Software Vulnerability Prediction Models has been accepted for presentation at the 8th ACM Celebration of Women in Computing - WomENcourage 2021 - and at the 5th International Workshop on Machine Learning Techniques for Software Quality Evaluation - MaLTeSQuE 2021.
Recently I found myself curious about how Refactoring impacts Code Comprehension. I have submitted a paper to a conference with double-blind review, therefore I am not giving any details! 🙊
I am serving as a reviewer for the Elsevier Journal of Systems and Software - JSS.
I volunteered at the 8th ACM Celebration of Women in Computing - WomENcourage 2021 - and at the 43rd International Conference on Software Engineering - ICSE 2021.
