I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Concordia Institute for Information Systems Engineering (CIISE), Concordia University, Montreal, Canada, under the supervision of Prof. Nizar Bouguila, with co-supervision from Dr. Wentao Fan and Dr. Manar Amayri.

My research focuses on machine learning, generative models, clustering, multimodal learning, and representation learning. I am interested in probabilistic and latent-geometry learning for complex data, with recent work on hyperspherical and axial representation learning, deep clustering and neural topic modeling. My work has been published or accepted at venues including KDD, SIGIR, WWW, ICME, ICASSP, BIBM, IJCNN, DSAA, ACM Transactions on Knowledge Discovery from Data, Neural Networks, Expert Systems with Applications, Neurocomputing, and Applied Intelligence.
