😈 My name is Ali Reza but you can call me Ali or Aro. I was born in a small city in the south of Iran near the Persian Gulf, which has an amazing beach, and I loved to spend time there and take some images. Currently, I'm a PhD Student at BioMedico Rome University, and I have been doing research at SI-Lab at the Institute of Information Science and Technologies (ISTI) of the Italian National Research Council (CNR). Additionally, I am doing my visiting research at Lanovaz Lab at the University of Montreal. Needless to say, I'm an organized, motivated, Artificial intelligence advocate, who is eager to learn more. I have been trying to do my best in Academia for the past 5 years and have worked in the realm of Image and Audio Processing.

👨🏻‍💻 I’m currently working on several projects such as HDR Imaging, Image segmentation, Autism detection based on facial images using deep learning analyzing the methods using Explainable AI method, and Vocal Stereotypy detection in autistic children, which I believe is extremely an interesting Project.
