About

I earned a Ph.D. in AI Planning and Robotics from IEETA at the University of Aveiro, Portugal. My doctoral dissertation contributes to the development of novel algorithms for knowledge representation, robot learning, and task planning. Prior to this, I earned my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in computer engineering from Qazvin Azad University in Iran.

Following the completion of my Ph.D., I conducted postdoctoral research in the Robotics Research Group at KU Leuven from December 2018 to August 2022. During this period, my research interests centered around artificial intelligence, automated planning, robotics, and robot learning. Specifically, I focused on integrating AI planning into real robotic systems to bridge the gap between AI and robotics. This endeavor resulted in the development of cutting-edge techniques and open-source tools for robot programming and planning.

Currently, I serve as a software engineer at OMP, specializing in the development of software solutions for supply chain planning and optimization.
