Ammar Mian

Ammar Mian is an Associate Professor at Université Savoie Mont Blanc, affiliated with the LISTIC lab and Polytech Annecy-Chambéry. He holds a PhD from CentraleSupélec (2016-2019) and conducted postdoctoral research at Aalto University (2019-2020). His research focuses on statistical signal processing, machine learning, and Riemannian geometry with applications in remote sensing and frugal computations. He leads the Qanat project, an experiment tracking tool for reproducible research.

Research interests include covariance-based methods for SAR image analysis, robust detection algorithms for sonar and GPR systems, and optimization on Riemannian manifolds. His work emphasizes reproducibility in ML and efficient computational techniques for resource-constrained environments.

Key contributions include real-time SAR time-series change detection, robust classification using second-order deep learning models, and novel methods for handling missing data in EEG signals. His recent articles (2023-2025) explore reproducibility frameworks, GPR-based object classification, and Riemannian geometry applications.

No awards listed, but maintains active collaborations through LISTIC and industry partnerships. Advises students via internship programs (e.g., Federated ML energy cost analysis). Lab work involves developing open-source tools like Qanat for experiment management and reproducibility.
