Shahab Rahimirad

I am a CS PhD student at Purdue University working with Professor Joseph Campbell at CAMP LAB. I work on the intersection of machine learning, reinforcement learning, and language processing. My main research focus is on designing and studying agents that utilize natural language for communication in environments that require cooperation and competition. I is interested in modeling agents’ beliefs and intentions with various probabilistic and machine-learning methods.

I received my B.S. degree of Computer Engineering from Sharif University of Technology in 2021. My bachelors project was in developing sequence models for text tagging in Persian language. Prior to joining Purdue University in 2023, I spent two years as a Data Scientist and Software Engineer in a FinTech startup.
