Hassan
I'm a PhD student in Computer Science at UC Irvine, advised by Dr. Mohsen Imani. I work on machine learning, with a focus on neurosymbolic methods. Lately, I've been especially drawn to reinforcement learning and world models.
Before that, I studied Computer Science at the University of Dhaka, where I worked on safe multi-agent reinforcement learning with Dr. Md. Mosaddek Khan. After graduating, I spent two years in industry as a machine learning engineer at Therap Services before starting my PhD.
Outside research, I enjoy art, anime, competitive programming, and table tennis.
