Fabrizio Guillaro is a second year PhD Student in Information Technologies and Electrical Engineering at University of Naples Federico II, Italy. His main research interests center on signal processing and deep learning techniques in the field of multimedia forensics. He is working under the direction of Professor Luisa Verdoliva and Professor Giovanni Poggi and his current research is being conducted in collaboration with Google Research. He graduated in Computer Engineering in 2021 at University of Naples Federico II. His master's thesis focuses on a semantic-based approach for the development of an image forgery detection technique, starting from an analysis of the performances of current state-of-the-art techniques based both on conventional and deep learning approaches. He participated in the 2018 IEEE Signal Processing Cup on camera model identification, earning the first prize after presenting his team's work in the 2018 International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, & Signal Processing (ICASSP).
