About

I recieved my B.Sc. and M.Sc. in computer engineering from Sharif University of Technology. I'm interested in machine learning, computer vision, and image processing. I'm currently a PhD student at University of Alberta. I'm supervised by professor Nilanjan Ray from Computing Science department and professor Gilbert Bigras from cross-cancer institue (CCI) and UofA department of Pathology.

Research

In the past, cancer diagnosis was based on viewing tissues/cells under microscope. Recently, making primary diagnosis from scanned/digitized pathology images has been officially approved. Apart from its clinical benefits, digital pathology provided machine learning researchers with abundant of data.

My research is about developing/adopting machine learning methods for digitized pathology images.

Code

We've developed a tool we called PyDmed to facilitate developing machine learning methods for whole-slide images and medical images in general. If you work on ML + medical imaging, PyDmed is really a life changer (research changer :) ).

You can check out PyDmed's repository on github.
