About
Get to know me
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Syracuse University. My research interests are 1) Social networks analysis 2) Deep Learning 3) Designing algorithms and Data Mining. I am currently working on ‘Noise-Enhanced Graph Algorithms’ and aim to answer the question ‘How noise can improve the performance of graph algorithms?'. In my research, I proposed a new noise-enhanced method to improve the performance of community detection algorithms. I also improved the unsupervised link prediction methods by injecting noise. Moreover, I am working on graph algorithms with Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). I have also worked on big networks’ algorithms such as connected components in my master thesis. I am interested in analyzing data and extracting patterns. I like programming with different languages and teaching with the experience of being a TA of graduate and undergraduate computer science courses.

Testimonials
‘ What I love most about Reyhaneh, is her inspiration power that she offers to herself and to other people also. As her fellow major, I always admire her positive mentality for hardworking, problem solving, self educationg and success. ’
‘ As her teammate, I’ve benefitted from her creative mind, tireless work ethic, and motivation to do whatever it takes to achieve the team goals. Her critical thinking and data analysis abilities allow her to perform exceedingly well under strict deadlines. ’
‘ Reyhaneh and I were classmates throughout our Bachelor's. As a friend and a peer, I can say that Reyhaneh is a smart and hardworking individual. Reyhaneh's personal traits, such as delivering on time and accurately, make her a great teammate as well. She is also super kind, caring, and respectful. ’
‘ Reyhaneh is a passionate worker with great communication skills. She and I completed a research paper on Generative Adversarial Networks and she was wonderful to work with. Not only did she take the lead in the research, she was excited about it every step of the way. She is, without a doubt, someone that I’d want working in my office or on my team. ’
