Hamed Rahimi, PhD

Research Associate at ISIR, Sorbonne University
Paris, France

I am a research associate at Sorbonne University, where I am a member of the ACIDE team at Institute of Intelligent Systems and Robotics (ISIR) working on latent generative modeling and human-robot interactions.

Previously, I was a doctoral researcher in the BD team at LIP6 Computer Science Laboratory of Sorbonne University, and a doctoral fellow at the Sorbonne Center for Artificial Intelligence (SCAI), where I completed my doctorate in data mining and information retrieval. Alongside my PhD, I pursued a post-master's degree in Entrepreneurial Project Management at CELSA | Sorbonne , further broadening my managerial skills. I hold an M.Sc. degree (Honors) in Computer Science from the University of Lyon (UdL) and a B.Sc. degree in Control Systems from Shiraz University, Iran.

During my graduate studies, I also had the opportunity to collaborate with and conduct visiting research at prestigious institutions such as Orange Labs, Cornell University, McGill University, and Microsoft AI Research in Amsterdam, enriching my experience in both industry and academia through interdisciplinary research.
