Arto Maranjyan
I’m a PhD student at KAUST, working under the guidance of Prof. Peter Richtárik. My research focuses on optimization for machine learning and federated learning, where I contribute to the development of distributed and randomized optimization algorithms.
Before starting my PhD, I earned my MSc and BSc from Yerevan State University. During my bachelor’s studies, I coauthored several papers in Harmonic Analysis under the supervision of Prof. Martin Grigoryan.
Outside of academics, I enjoy dancing bachata, playing board games, ultimate frisbee and foosball.
