Mohammad S.Beni

Ph.D., Concordia Institute of Information Systems Engineering (CIISE)

I received B.Sc. degree form ECE Department at Isfahan University of Technology in 2011, the M.Sc. degree from same university (IUT) in 2014. I am now a Ph.D. candidate at Concordia Institute for Information System Engineering (CIISE). I have joined i-sip Lab. at CIISE at the Rank of Research Assistant in January 2019 and have been working on three different industrial projects and many research activities since then.

My fields of interest are among Reinforcement Learning, Signal Processing, Internet of Things (IoT) and indoor localization services, Blockchain developement and Big data technologies and applications. I am a Member of the IEEE and a member of IEEE Signal Processing Society.
