I am a direct Ph.D. student in the computer science program supervised by Dr. Lila Kari. I completed my undergraduate in computer engineering at Sharif University of Technology, where I worked on anomaly detection and unsupervised learning. Currently, I am interested in using machine learning models in bioinformatics. As part of the biodiversity research group, I am working on representation learning using the BOLD dataset.
