Ciao!

IPA: /ˈaŋd͡ʒelo sɑləˈtinoʊ/

I am a Research Fellow and Associate Lecturer at the Knowledge Media Institute (KMi) of The Open University (RoR), working on novel AI solutions to analyse scholarly data, contributing to the field of Metascience. I created several systems used by publishers and research organisations, including the Computer Science Ontology (CSO), currently the largest taxonomy of research topics in Computer Science; the CSO Classifier, which annotates research documents; and Augur, a tool for detecting emerging research topics. My collaborations extend to several international institutions, including the University of Cagliari (IT), Stanford University (US), the University of Hannover (DE), and Springer Nature, with whom I am actively working to improve the classification and management of their research content. My current research investigates the potential of Large Language Models in supporting the analysis of scientific knowledge. Specifically, I am exploring how these models can be augmented with domain knowledge to facilitate a deeper understanding of scientific content and provide enhanced support to researchers and practitioners in their daily activities. Within the broader context of metascience, my interests lie in AI Policies, Forensic Scientometrics, Research Culture, and Research Impact.
