Matteo Brucato
Senior Researcher
About
I am a Senior Researcher in the Data Systems Group at Microsoft Research, Redmond. My research focuses on augmenting Data Management Systems to better support all stages of Business Analytics, with special emphasis on data-driven predictive and prescriptive analytics, for faster and easier decision making.
I am a co-inventor of the “package query” paradigm, for in-database support of a broad class of decision-making problems that can be expressed as integer linear programs (ILP), on both certain and uncertain data. My work has been largely interdisciplinary, spanning also other research areas such as operations research, natural language processing, text summarization, information retrieval, AI, and robotics.
I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, and my M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Bologna, Italy. I was an intern at MSR (DMX) in 2017, at IBM in 2016, I visited NYU Abu Dhabi in 2016, UC Berkeley (AMPLab) in 2015, Aarhus University (Denmark) in 2013, and UC Riverside in 2011.
