Bazaar

My personal website, a bazaar of small and heterogenous projects.

About me

I’m Valerio Bonometti, a senior data scientist with experience in the retail Tesco and renewable energy sectors at LightsourceBP.

I completed an industrial PhD in computer science at the University of York while being based full-time with Square Enix data science team for 4 years. My PhD thesis attempted to bridge neuro-scientific theories of motivation with machine learning approaches for its estimation. The focus was on designing, developing and prototyping artificial neural network models for estimating the motivational state of players and predicting their engagement simultaneously across a wide range of games.

My educational background is in (clinical) experimental psychology and neuroscience and I have a keen interest in applied statistics, machine learning and science in general.

About this website

This website is an attempt to organize the small and heterogeneous projects I develop in my free time as part of my self development. It is a way for guiding and self-disciplining my learning journey.
