Academic Achievements
- Published multiple journal papers in prestigious journals such as Operations Research, Mathematical Programming, etc. Awards include the EPFL Thesis Distinction Award in 2020 and the Swiss National Science Foundation Early PostDoc Mobility Fellowship in 2020. Also, supervising PhD student Khanh-Hung Tran-Giang (Bruce Giang).
Research Experience
- Currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell University. Previously held positions as a postdoctoral researcher at the Tepper School of Business, Carnegie Mellon University, and the Automatic Control Laboratory, ETH Zurich.
Education
- B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Tehran; Ph.D. in Management of Technology from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL).
Background
- Primary research interests revolve around optimization under uncertainty, low-complexity decision-making, and optimal transport. Most of his works fall into one of the following categories: designing new models and algorithms based on (distributionally) robust optimization, statistical and computational complexity analyses of data-driven optimization problems, structured nonconvex optimization with applications in machine learning and finance.
