Summary
Arda Bati is a Senior Data Scientist based in Atlanta with 7 years of engineering and research experience and a recent M.S. in ECE (Machine Learning and Data Science) from UC San Diego. He has moved from embedded and systems engineering into large-scale ML, designing and deploying distributed learning pipelines and performing data denoising, feature extraction, and continuous model evaluation at Norfolk Southern. His research background in CNN architecture search, unsupervised domain adaptation, and teacher–student learning informs practical solutions for production problems, bridging novel academic methods with robust industrial deployment. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs hands-on coding and model integration with teaching experience in data structures and statistics, which tightens his communication of complex ideas to stakeholders. Colleagues describe him as someone who quickly turns noisy, high-volume data into actionable insights and scalable models while keeping an eye on long-term maintainability.
