استاد آموزشی
Tony Pinar serves as an Associate Teaching Professor and Senior Design Coordinator in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Michigan Technological University. His academic credentials include: PhD in Electrical Engineering (2017) MS in Electrical Engineering (2014) BS in Electrical Engineering (2011) Dr. Pinar's research centers on Machine Learning and Pattern Recognition , with significant contributions to Information Fusion and Signal Processing . His work bridges theoretical frameworks like fuzzy Choquet integrals with practical applications including explosive hazard detection systems and autonomous underwater vehicles. Current projects focus on explainable AI methodologies and real-time data fusion for engineering systems. Publications from 2016-2018 reveal a consistent trajectory in fuzzy integral applications across domains: defense technology (explosive detection), robotics (underwater gliders), and AI interpretability. Key themes include decision-level fusion optimization, multiple kernel learning, and adapting theoretical models to constrained data environments—demonstrating strong interdisciplinary alignment between electrical engineering and machine learning. Prior to academia, Dr. Pinar worked as an electrical design engineer at GE Aviation developing avionic test systems. He maintains industry engagement through independent engineering consulting while leading the ROUGHIE (Research Oriented Underwater Glider for Hands-on Investigative Engineering) development initiative.
