Andrea Ponti
I am a Data Scientist with a Master's degree in Computer Science. I combine academic rigour with hands-on industrial experience, using cutting-edge technologies at the intersection of research and practice.
My research focuses on the optimisation of black-box functions using advanced Bayesian methods. From an industrial perspective, I specialise in the development of versatile machine learning solutions, with a focus on foundation models and Large Language Models (LLMs, aka what's behind ChatGPT).
I am fluent in Italian and English and can converse with AI models.

How different document parsing and chunking strategies impact RAG pipeline performance? Using real-life documents and LLM-generated question/answer pairs, we assess multiple methods – both open-source and commercial – showing that parsing quality significantly affects response accuracy and that the best approach may depends on the question type.
