Welcome!
My name is Alper Demir. I am a Computer Engineer, an amateur photographer and an amateur basketball player. I like to watch movies and I am interested in cosmology.
Currently, I've recently get my MS degree in the same field and seeking to have a PhD in Computer Science. My major interests in Computer Science fall into Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Also, I work as a Research and Teaching Assistant in Middle East Technical University (Turkey).
