About me

Hi! I am Borna Khodabandeh, I am currently an independent researcher, and a prospective graduate student. I have received my B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering with a minor in Physics from Sharif University of Technology.

I aim to apply rigorous theoretical and mathematical approaches in crucial areas of machine learning, that have practical value. As I am still exploring, I am broadly interested in generative modelling, adversarial robustness and optimization, reinforcement learning, and understanding learning systems through the lens of information theory, statistics and optimization theory.

Research Interests

• Mathematical foundations of machine learning and optimization
• Adversarial robustness and strategic behavior in learning systems
• Information theory and statistical learning
• Reinforcement learning and online decision-making
• Graph signal processing and graph neural networks
• Statistical physics in machine learning
