I am an AI Researcher at Mila. Previously I worked for two years as a computer vision researcher and 3D reconstruction engineer at Algolux, a self-driving car software startup, and Magicplan, Sensopia Inc., an augmented reality mobile app which maps indoor environments.
I did my masters at McGill in Electrical and Computer Engineering, where I was advised by James J. Clark. My master's research was on modeling visual attention and distraction, which is closely related to the saliency prediction, in visual search tasks using deep learning and eye tracking data.
I did my undergraduate at Shahid Beheshti University in Electrical Engineering with a focus on telecommunications and signal processing. My undergraduate research was focused on end-to-end training approach for lane following task (behavioral clonning) in autonomous vehicles using convolutional neural networks. During my undergraduate, I worked on multiple robotic projects and learned about electronic circuits troubleshooting and assembly.
My research interests lie at the intersection of human vision, robotics, computer vision and machine learning. Besides AI and programming, I also enjoy hardware assembly and electronic circuitry.
