I am a senior research scientist at Google DeepMind. My research interests are deep learning, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, in general. As a research scientist, I work on continual and lifelong learning, multitask and transfer learning, understanding the training dynamics of deep neural networks and reinforcement learning. These research are inline with DeepMind's mission towards Aritifical General Intelligence. As an applied scientist and engineer, I work on applications of machine learning, specifically using recommendation and predictive models, meta learning, causal inference and reinforcement learning to improve Google's products in areas such as YouTube, Cloud and Sales. I received my Ph.D. in 2018 in Computational Science and Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology, under the supervision of Hongyuan Zha and Le Song. I used to work on modeling and optimization of events data, stochastic point processes, and dynamics of and on the networks. Prior to that, I received my M.Sc. in Artificial Intelligence from the Computer Engineering Department at Sharif University of Technology and my B.Sc. from the same university in Software Engineering. Amid the coronavirus outbreak, I'm currenly living in and working from the greater Seattle area.
