Morteza Mahdiani is an AI researcher and machine learning engineer specializing in multimodal vision–language systems and NeuroAI, with nine years of experience spanning academic labs and industry. Based in Montreal, he currently conducts graduate-level research at Mila and Université de Montréal while interning as a researcher at Huawei Canada, focusing on aligning deep models with brain imaging data. His work blends computer vision, transformers and CNNs with fMRI/EEG analysis—building platforms to benchmark models against human visual pathways and making models more brain-like. Prior roles include improving real-world BCI performance by optimizing EEG-based blink detection and supporting large-scale health data analytics for international organizations. Morteza pairs strong engineering chops from a B.Sc. in Software Engineering with hands-on NeuroAI experiments, uniquely bridging deployable ML systems and cognitive neuroscience. He often moves between prototype deployment and rigorous brain-alignment evaluation, making his work both practical and scientifically grounded.
