BIOGRAPHY
During my teenage years, I discovered a magazine focused on science and technology called Danestaniha. After reading a few editions, I became a fan of the magazine. It provided entertainment and ignited my interest in the world of science and technology. This fascination led me to pursue a degree in electronic engineering at the university, a field closely associated with technology. In my final year of undergraduate studies, I was introduced to Artificial Intelligence (AI), and my interest in this field deepened. Motivated by this passion, I pursued a Master's in AI at Sharif University of Technology, specializing in real-time computer vision. Throughout my years of study, I completed various courses related to AI, including image processing, machine learning, machine vision, computer vision in intelligent environments, parallel programming, data mining, and advanced statistical analysis. After obtaining my master's degree, I gained valuable experience as a machine learning engineer and consultant for several years, contributing to diverse industrial projects. Since the summer of 2022, I have been pursuing my Ph.D. under the supervision of Professor Samira Kivanpour.
