Luca Zanella

PhD Student,
University of Trento
Trento, Italy
Hi! I’m Luca, a PhD student in the Multimedia and Human Understanding Group at the University of Trento, Italy, supervised by Prof. Elisa Ricci and co-advised by Dr. Massimiliano Mancini.
Before my doctoral studies, I was a research assistant at Fondazione Bruno Kessler, leading the development of video understanding technologies in the European projects MARVEL and PROTECTOR.
My research focuses on vision-language models for understanding videos from diverse domains, including step grounding in instructional videos, video-language alignment using real and synthetic videos, and anomaly detection in surveillance footage.
