Overview

Dr. Ahmad Reza Heravi received a B.Sc. degree in electronics engineering and an M.Sc. and Ph.D. in communications engineering from the Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, Iran, in 2009, 2012, and 2018, respectively. His research interests are machine learning, deep learning and optimization, information theoretic learning, and time-series and signal processing. He has supervised several academic research in universities.

He has published several journal papers on optimization and neural network subjects in IEEE journals. Currently, he is the reviewer of several scientific journal papers. He has over 15 years of experience in Computer vision, Machine Learning, and Signal Processing. Now he is the AI consultant and AI manager for three European companies. As an AI lead, he has conducted several EU-granted commercial projects from 2019 to 2023.
