Under review at ICLR 2026
Supervised by Prof. Babak Khalaj
Conducted under Prof. Babak Khalaj’s supervision at Sharif University of Technology. Developed an autonomous four-wheeled robot capable of Object-Goal Navigation with natural language interaction in both simulated (Webots) and real-world environments. Collaborated in a multidisciplinary team of 4 members, contributing to system integration, perception–navigation alignment, and collaborative debugging during deployment.
Conducted under Dr. Sajjad Amini’s supervision for Deep Generative Models course. Evaluated multiple trajectory prediction models on Jetson Nano and Quadro RTX, measured computational cost in terms of energy consumption and inference time, and provided comparative analysis beyond accuracy to assess model efficiency.
Conducted under Prof. Babak Khalaj’s supervision for a Data Science project. Crawled academic datasets from the web for evaluation, applied preprocessing techniques and regression models, and developed an LLM-powered assistant to recommend research papers based on input descriptions.
Conducted under Dr. Rouhollah Amiri's supervision for ML course. Implemented SISA algorithm for efficient machine unlearning, executed backdoor attacks to evaluate model resistance, analyzed performance metrics, and enhanced model security using privacy-preserving techniques.
Conducted under Dr. Hamid Behroozi's supervision for Signals and Systems course. Implemented JPEG Image Compression Algorithm using MATLAB.
Conducted under Dr. Mohammad Reza Movahedin's supervision for Computer Architecture course. Implemented Single-Cycle and Multi-Cycle MIPS data path using Verilog and ModelSim.
Developed under Dr. Matin Hashemi's supervision for Object-Oriented Programming course. Implemented PC messenger application using Java.
