Junior Researcher
Mahtab obtained her BSc degree in Computer Engineering from Isfahan University in Iran in 2016. In 2019, she moved to Italy to pursue a Master’s degree at the Polytechnic University of Turin, specializing in Computer Engineering with a focus on Data Analytics. She completed her Master’s thesis at the University of Tulsa in the United States, where she explored integrating deep metric learning into predictive models.
With three years of experience in software engineering, Mahtab has developed expertise in creating web and Android applications. After earning her Master’s degree, she sought to blend her software engineering skills with her knowledge of machine learning and artificial intelligence. This led her to undertake an internship as a machine learning engineer at Primo Caredent Group in Turin.
