Work Experience

Research Assistant at Amirkabir University of Technology
September 1, 2025 - November 12, 2025
Conducting ongoing bibliometric research focused on AI applications in Smart Buildings, under the supervision of Dr. Hossein Alizadeh.
Computer Vision and Signal Processing Consultant at Evasa
April 1, 2024 - April 1, 2024
Led a project to improve the accuracy of remote heart rate measurement from facial videos. By investigating discrepant results, I identified an unreliable FFT function as the core issue. I designed and implemented a robust, iterative PPG denoising pipeline, which successfully stabilized heart rate estimates and brought them into close alignment with the verified ground truth value.
Undergraduate Research Assistant at Islamic Azad University, Karaj Branch
October 1, 2023 - October 1, 2023
Proposed a novel Giza Pyramids Construction metaheuristic using upper bound calculations to optimize network reliability and cost, under supervision of Dr. Sasan Harifi. Tested on 12 complex networks, outperforming 10 state-of-the-art algorithms in reliability and efficiency. Applied the method to a real university network as a practical case study, achieving effective and cost-efficient solutions.
