Biography
Hi! I’m a third-year PhD student in the Computer Science department at Virginia Tech, advised by Prof. Chandan Reddy. Prior to starting my PhD, I worked at Gilead Sciences as AI Scientist Intern. I completed my MS in Operations Research at Virginia Tech, and obtained my BS from Sharif University of Technology.
Research Interests
My primary research interests revolve around AI for symbolic generation (code, math & reasoning) and its potentials for scientific discovery. Most of my works fall into one of these categories:
- AI for Math, with a focus on uncovering hidden mathematical laws within data (equation discovery, symbolic regression)
- AI for Code, with a focus on automating program synthesis, contextual code generation, and neuro-symbolic programming
If you’re interested in my research, would like to discuss relevant topics, or explore potential collaborations, please feel free to get in touch :)
I am best reached by email at parshinshojaee@vt.edu
