About me

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Uppsala University, Division of Systems and Control, focusing on optimization for robust federated learning.

I received my PhD in October 2024 from the Division of Decision and Control Systems at KTH, under the supervision of Prof. Håkan Hjalmarsson, where I worked on sparse system identification.

Previously, I completed my M.Sc. in Communication and Signal Processing at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Sharif University of Technology, in 2019. My master thesis was supervised by Prof. Massoud Babaie-Zadeh.

My research interests include machine learning, optimization, and system identification.
