Summary
Vasilis Sarris is a PhD student and Graduate Teaching Assistant at the University of Pittsburgh’s School of Computing and Information with eight years of research and teaching experience in algorithms, databases, and ML-driven vision. He has built scalable analysis pipelines (including a graph-based fMRI workflow processing 10,000+ scans), developed novel path-finding algorithms published at major conferences, and adapted convolutional models to mimic early visual processing for domain-generalization studies. Comfortable both grading core CS courses and driving research, he blends hands-on software development in Python/PyTorch and JavaScript with rigorous experimental evaluation. Born in Cyprus and raised near Washington, D.C., he brings a global perspective and a curiosity for travel that feeds his collaborative, interdisciplinary approach.
