  Machine Learning Researcher

  Around two years ago, I started improving my experience in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning by remotely cooperating with two respected researchers and assistant professors (Dr Roohi and Dr Angizi) from the United States as a machine learning researcher. My task was to study hardware‐software co‐optimization solutions and hardware accelerators for machine learning to find new solutions or improve existing ones. We published two papers, which I listed in my CV, at related conferences. Although most of my projects and coding experience were around deep and convolutional neural networks, I am familiar enough with various concepts of machine learning, including supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning; and sub‐topics such as autoencoders, transformers, graph neural networks, and recurrent neural networks. I have experience in Pytorch and no stranger to TensorFlow or Keras. Furthermore, I am skilled in Python and its libraries, such as Numpy, Cupy, and Pandas. Moreover, I have experience in CUDA and C/C++ to integrate them with Pytorch modules to improve the performance of custom‐defined modules. It means I can improve AI models from both software and hardware perspectives. Show less
