Biography

I received my engineering degree in computer science and data science from the Private High School of Engineering and Technologies (Tunisia) in 2020. I then earned my MSc degree in advanced engineering, the internet of things, and data processing from the Polytechnic School of Tunisia in 2021. Currently, I'm pursuing a Ph.D. at Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. My research in artificial intelligence includes speech and emotion analysis, signal processing, and pattern recognition.
