Here you can find a list of available Bachelor and Master thesis available, along with internships. There may be also novel projects available, so please check with me if you are interested in the topics I work on.
I am always happy to work with Bachelor and Master students, and I am glad that you are considering one of the topic I propose. Undergoing a thesis work is a key step in your education, and it is a challenging yet rewarding experience. The following rules are meant to be a guideline so that both you and me can carry the project in an efficient manner.

Bachelor/Master | Privacy assessment of WiFi CSI based activity recognition | Explore the privacy tradeoffs of device-free WiFi sensing, in terms of recognized people, activity performed, people re-identification. | | IoT, Activity recognition, WiFi CSI, Privacy |
Bachelor/Master | Recognition of key daily activities for patients | Patient monitoring can be done with wearables, and this thesis focuses on the recognition of key activities in a day for patients witrh different pathologies. | | IoT, Activity recognition, e-Health |
B.Sc./M.Sc. | Title | Abstract | Partners | Topics |
Bachelor | Alternative routes from GPS data | Leveraging open GPS datasets, the goal of this project is to determine whether there are multiple routes in a city which are used by drivers to reach a common point, depending on the time of the day, weather conditions and other parameters | | Data Analysis, Openstreetmap |
Bachelor | Determine the economical benefits of crowdsensing | Compute the costs to deploy and maintain an infrastructure to sense specific data. Then it is possible to determine what is the price someone is allowed to pay to users if the same data is obtained through crowdsensing. The system should leverage open data and real parameters | UNIBO | Crowdsensing, IoT |
Master | Participatory Crowdsensing analysis | Through the use of available data, this work should assess whether user habits exists in participatory crowdsensing | | Crowdsensing, Data Science |

Bachelor | Evaluate different techniques to improve k-anonymity | Evaluate different techniques to improve the privacy resilience of datasets | | K-anonymity, Privacy |
Master | Leverage k-anonymity to divide data and improve privacy | Divide and anonymyze for k-anonimity. Identify clusters which are hard to separate with k-anonimity and separate them | | K-anonymity, Privacy |
Master | Identify and exploit common points in datasets | Develop a version of k-anonymity which balances the amount of information which is kept secret and stored locally on a device and the information which is instead shared publicly | | K-anonymity, Privacy |
Master | Understanding how routine habits may uncover privacy issues | Starting from user datasets about routine habits, understand how patterns can highlight specific habits and understand possible issues with the privacy of users. | UC Irvine | Graph Theory, Privacy |
