Mojtaba Sadafi
Computer Engineering graduate researching machine learning for power systems
Based in Rasht, Iran. B.Sc. in Computer Engineering at Esfarayen University of Technology. I build algorithm-driven solutions at the intersection of neural networks and energy infrastructure — currently focused on strategic PMU placement in distribution networks, optimization of high-voltage AC–DC converter performance, and intelligent sensor configuration. Trying to turn theoretical ideas into deployable, intelligent tools for the grid.
