AI Safety & Reliability Research
Ph.D. Student · UMD GAMMA Lab
I'm a Ph.D. student in Computer Engineering at University of Maryland, working in GAMMA Lab under Prof. Ming Lin. My research focuses on robust and reliable machine learning, AI safety, and spurious correlations in vision systems.
I'm a Ph.D. student in Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park, working in GAMMA Lab under the supervision of Professor Ming Lin.
Previously, I completed my B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from Sharif University of Technology, where I worked with Professor Mahdieh Soleymani and Professor Mohammad Hossein Rohban.
My research interests include robust and reliable machine learning, interpretability and faithfulness of vision–language models, spurious correlations and shortcut learning, and AI safety. A recurring theme in my work is understanding when models appear accurate on average but behave unexpectedly in important or edge cases.
