Dr Reza Argha

Dr Reza Argha

Lecturer

Dr Argha received his BSc and MSc in Electrical Engineering from Shiraz University, Iran, and his PhD from University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Australia (2017).

Engineering
Grad Sch: Biomedical Eng

He is currently a Lecturer at the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering, UNSW, Sydney, using his skills in biomedical system modelling and control, signal processing, data analysis and machine learning. Reza has an advanced knowledge of machine learning and deep learning and has applied his knowledge to biosignal processing and analytics. Within this scope, his effort is to pioneer AI-based methods to model complexity of physiological data and thereby develop novel predictive algorithms.
