Summary
Metin Arican is a research-focused mathematician and physicist with 10 years of experience applying theory to practical problems across cryptanalysis, computer vision, and embedded systems. Currently a Mathematics Research Assistant at Boğaziçi Üniversitesi, he has contributed to a CVPR'22 paper from ETH Zürich by designing training-free neural architecture search metrics and writing much of the codebase. His background includes hands-on cryptanalysis work at TÜBİTAK BİLGEM—implementing differential/linear attacks in Python and analyzing quantum attacks on RSA—and internships building VAD benchmarks and RF/GUI tools. A former member of Turkey’s national physics team and an IPHO silver medalist, he blends deep mathematical intuition with systems-level coding skills in Python, C#, and Arduino. Metin’s profile combines rigorous academic research with practical cryptographic and signal-processing engineering, often favoring reproducible, implementation-driven exploration.
