About Me

I’m Fahimeh Orvati Nia, a PhD student in Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University, where I specialize in artificial intelligence, computer vision, and machine learning. My journey in academia has been driven by a deep passion for using cutting-edge technology to solve real-world challenges.

My Current Work

Currently, my research focuses on:

Image Processing and Computer Vision: I am working on innovative techniques for plant growth and phenotyping, leveraging advanced AI models to analyze and predict plant development patterns.
Generative AI: I explore applications of generative adversarial networks (GANs) for anomaly detection and data generation tasks.
Graph Neural Networks: My previous work includes developing GNN-based systems for pedestrian intention prediction, with applications in smart cities and autonomous systems.

My Background

I completed my Master of Science in Electrical Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, where I delved into:

Building GAN-based systems for detecting anomalies in time-series data.
Applying graph neural networks for predictive modeling in human behavior.

Prior to that, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (Control) from Amirkabir University of Technology, where I gained a strong foundation in systems modeling and control theory.

Skills & Expertise

Here are some of the areas where I excel:

Programming: Python, MATLAB, TensorFlow, PyTorch, C++.
AI & Machine Learning: Generative AI, Graph Neural Networks, Deep Learning Models.
Embedded Systems: Raspberry Pi, STM32, Arduino.
Computer Vision Tools: OpenCV, image preprocessing, and feature extraction.

Beyond Research

Outside of academics, I enjoy:

Collaborating with interdisciplinary teams to tackle complex problems.
Teaching and Mentoring: Sharing knowledge and empowering others to explore the fascinating world of AI.
Exploring New Ideas: I am always curious about integrating technology into fields like public health, neuroscience, and robotics.

Why I Do What I Do

I believe that technology is a tool for empowerment, and I am committed to using my skills to make a positive impact in the world. Whether it’s improving agricultural systems, enhancing public safety, or advancing medical research, my goal is to bridge the gap between innovation and application.
