PhD Candidate · Yıldız Technical University
Quantum Machine Learning Researcher
I am a PhD candidate in Computer Engineering at Yıldız Technical University, developing hybrid classical-quantum neural networks for renewable energy and smart grid applications. With industry experience in computer vision, C++ 3D scanning SDK development, and digital twin research across Turkey, Germany, and Canada, I bridge theory and practice, also teaching parallel computing and AI/ML at multiple universities. I hold a competitive NERSC allocation on the Perlmutter supercomputer at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory for large-scale quantum ML experiments, and serve as a peer reviewer for 16+ international journals including Information Fusion, Engineering Applications of AI, and IEEE RA-L.
I am a researcher and engineer working at the intersection of quantum computing, machine learning, and high-performance computing. Currently pursuing my PhD in Computer Engineering at Yıldız Technical University, my research focuses on developing hybrid classical-quantum neural network architectures for renewable energy and smart grid applications.
Beyond academia, I bring hands-on industry experience in computer vision systems, 3D scanning SDK development in C++, and digital twin research through international collaborations spanning Turkey, Germany, and Canada. I have also taught parallel computing and AI/ML courses across multiple universities.
My work has been recognised with a competitive NERSC Director's Discretionary Reserve allocation on the Perlmutter supercomputer at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (U.S. Department of Energy), where I run quantum machine learning experiments at scale.
I serve as a peer reviewer for 16+ international journals and conferences, including Information Fusion, Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence, Energy, and IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters.
