Disentangled Latent Spaces Facilitate Data-Driven Auxiliary Learning
Learning to solve auxiliary tasks concurrently with a principal task of interest can improve performance when data is scarce or the principal task is complex. This idea is inspired by the improved generalization capability induced by solving multiple tasks simultaneously, leading to a robust shared representation. However, selecting optimal auxiliary tasks typically requires manual design or costly meta-learning approaches. We propose Detaux, a framework that discovers an unrelated auxiliary cla...
KairosAD: A SAM-Based Model for Industrial Anomaly Detection on Embedded Devices
In the era of intelligent manufacturing, anomaly detection has become essential for maintaining quality control on modern production lines. However, while many existing models show promising performance, they are often too large, computationally demanding, and impractical to deploy on resource-constrained embedded devices that can be easily installed on the production lines of Small and Medium Enter-prises (SMEs). To bridge this gap, we present KairosAD, a novel supervised approach that uses the...
Nurses’ emotion (dis/)regulation, flexibility and compassion satisfaction: an empirical study
It is not surprising that nurses are in need of skills and competences for understanding how to handle with emotions, i.e., emotion regulation. Structurally, the healthcare context exposes its nursing staff to constant and continuous potential traumatic events characterized by emotional activation. Such an emotional activation implies potential psychological risks with consequences both at the level of mental health and nurses’ professional satisfaction. This provides impetus for gaining empiric...
How the propensity to care for others informs behavioural tendencies toward people with disabilities
The Caregiving Behavioural System plays a central role in shaping relational functioning across the lifespan, as it regulates proximity and support in response to others' needs. Four caregiving profiles– functional, avoidant, anxious/intrusive, and problematic – can be identified based on individuals’ levels of hyperactivation and deactivation, using the thresholds recently developed for the Caregiving System Scale (CSS). The four caregiving profiles may be relevant for understanding how individ...
Traditional, Episodic and Digital Volunteering: New Perspectives on Social Participation
Volunteering represents a crucial form of social participation. In addition to traditional modalities, more flexible forms—such as episodic and digital volunteering—are increasingly emerging, expanding opportunities for engagement and reshaping both the perceived meaning and social impact of volunteer activities. This qualitative research, grounded in nine focus groups comprising a total of 67 volunteers, undertakes an analysis of the experiences of individuals engaged in the three forms of volu...

Networking e InternazionalizzazioneL'ateneo promuove la presenza di ricercatori e docenti internazionali per attività di didattica e di ricerca attraverso specifici finanziamenti per la mobilità in ingresso degli ospiti internazionali.
Un Visiting Professor è un docente o ricercatore di alto livello proveniente da un'istituzione straniera, invitato per un periodo limitato a svolgere attività accademiche.
Annualmente vengono pubblicati i bandi "Visiting" ricompresi all'interno del Programma di internazionalizzazione di ateneo che finanziano soggiorni di ricerca e/o di didattica a Verona, oltre che l'attribuzione di interi insegnamenti a docenti internazionali. Inoltre, i Dipartimenti dispongono di appositi finanziamenti, finalizzati ad accrescere la dimensione internazionale della didattica all'interno dei Corsi di studio, anche attraverso la partecipazione di docenti provenienti da atenei europei ed extra-europei.
