Welcome to my home page 😊

My name is Arian (Persian: آریان ) – you can also call me Ari. I am a researcher in Electrical and Computer Engineering. I received my M.Sc. in Computer Engineering (Artificial Intelligence and Robotics) from the Department of Computer Engineering, Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic). I also received my B.Sc. in Computer Engineering (Computer Hardware) from the CSE & IT Department of Shiraz University. My doctoral research in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Concordia University has focused on reinforcement learning and restless bandit methods for scheduling, where I passed the PhD Comprehensive Examination in 2025.

I find great fulfillment in exploring the intersection of theoretical principles in machine and deep learning with their diverse applications. My master's research centered on statistical signal processing, specifically modeling space-time-frequency representations in image processing. I explored image decomposition techniques to uncover latent representations across new domains, coupled with the statistical analysis of the resulting coefficients. My research interests include statistical modeling, optimization, and reinforcement learning.
