Mission

The Information Systems Group (ISGroup) was established in 2001 by Prof. Paolo Tiberio and it is currently located in the Department of Physics Informatics and Mathematics (FIM) of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia.
For years, our research has been at the forefront of managing multifaceted information, from unstructured text to semi-structured, graph-based, and streaming data. These diverse data types present significant challenges, and at ISGroup, we specialize in developing methodologies and tools that enable efficient and effective management of non-conventional data across a wide range of applications, ranging from distributed systems to streaming processing.
As AI continues to reshape the landscape of computer science research, we have extended our expertise to the systematic engineering of data used to build AI systems. Our core focus includes:

• AI-powered solutions for processing complex, real-world data
• Transparent, data-centric AI models that ensure interpretability and trust
• Scalable, distributed learning solutions that deliver high performance and efficiency while preserving data privacy.

Our innovations are driving impactful change in key sectors, including healthcare, smart manufacturing, and natural language processing (NLP), enabling actionable insights and transformative solutions.
