Marcello Montanino

I am an Associate Professor of Traffic Flow Modelling and Simulation at the University of Naples Federico II and co-founder of Inputspace. I develop human driver models that strike a balance between accuracy and complexity, and can ultimately be used to successfully validate autonomous driving in mixed traffic simulation.
I'm a passionate programmer and NBA fan.
