Hey there! My name is Amirhossein, natively written امیرحسین رجبی. and I'm a Data Scientist at TESCO. I've always been fascinated by the world of computer science and probabilities, and I'm constantly on the lookout for new ways to apply my knowledge in the real world. I've spent the last few years getting my PhD at the Technical University of Denmark and publishing papers on randomised search heuristics and metaheuristics. Now, I'm using my skills to tackle complex problems and make a difference as a Data Scientist at TESCO. In my free time, you'll probably find me nerding out about the latest research or tinkering with new technologies. I can't wait to share my experiences and insights with you on my personal website.
