I am Ardavan, a researcher, technologist, and designer. I inquire into the creative applications of robotics and machine learning at Carnegie Mellon University.

I am Ardavan Bidgoli, a computational designer, roboticist, and machine learning researcher.​ I graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a Ph.D. in Computational Design. My research concerns the interfaces that enable ​​designers and creative​ users ​​to interact with ML-based computational design​ ​​and robotic fabrication tools.​

​

I am the lead instructor of the Introduction to Machine Learning in Design at CMU School of Architecture. My industry partnerships span​ ​various research and product teams at AEC-Tech companies, including the Generative Components team at Bentley Systems and Autodesk’s OCTO team at Pier9 and BUILD space facilities.
