Bio

Cesare Bianchi was born in Rome in 1979, and since he was 7 he started to show a big interest in Computer Science, learning the first rudiments of Basic on his uncle's Commodore 64.

Finished the "Classical Liceo", he decides to enrol in Phisics, where he will resist just one year, to migrate toward his other big interest: Psychology. During the courses, he works for various companies as a programmer, system administrator or trainer, following his passion for Computers (and earning something from it). He also writes for the magazines Dev and Computer Programming, publishing various articles about computer science.

In 2006 he gets the Master's Degree in Experimental Psychology, discussing a thesis on the complexity of recurrent neural networks evolved with genetic algorithms, and the same year in November he arrives in Dublin to begin a PhD in Cognitive Sciences, in the UCD School of Computer Science and Informatics.

At present he carries on his research on the use of Analogical Reasoning during Category Learning, with experiments on "human volunteers" and computational models that explain the experimental results.

His other interests are music (mainly Electronic and Classic, since he studied piano too), photography, cinema and literature.
