Latent Trajectory Discrimination for AI-Generated Text Detection

Gianluca Bonifazi, Christopher Buratti, Michele Marchetti +5

Most existing approaches to AI-Generated Text Detection (AIGTD) treat documents as static objects and base their decisions on aggregate statistics or globally compressed embeddings…

Efficient Retrieval-Augmented Generation via Token Co-occurrence Graphs

Gianluca Bonifazi, Christopher Buratti, Michele Marchetti +5

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) mitigates hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs) by grounding the generation process on external knowledge. However, standard RAG appro…

A statistical model to identify excess mortality in Italy in the period 2011-2022

Antonino Bella, Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista +7

Excess mortality is defined as an increase in the number of deaths above what is expected based on historical trends, hereafter called baseline. In a previous paper, we introduced…

Study on the effects of the restrictive measures for containment of the COVID-19 pandemic on the reproduction number in Italian regions

Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista, Dario Menasce +4

Since November 6, 2020, Italian regions have been classified according to four levels, corresponding to specific risk scenarios, for which specific restrictive meas…

A statistical analysis of death rates in Italy for the years 2015-2020 and a comparison with the casualties reported for the COVID-19 pandemic

Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista, Dario Menasce +5

We analyze the data about casualties in Italy in the period 01/01/2015 to 30/09/2020 released by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT). The data exhibit a clear sinu…

A study on the possible merits of using symptomatic cases to trace the development of the COVID-19 pandemic

Gianluca Bonifazi, Luca Lista, Dario Menasce +4

In a recent work we introduced a novel method to compute the effective reproduction number and we applied it to describe the development of the COVID-19 outbreak in Italy. Th…
