Elena Merdjanovska is a computer engineer with an interest in machine learning and its applications to biomedical data.

She joined SCIoI as a doctoral researcher in October 2022.

Elena holds a B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Macedonia and an M.Sc. from Jozef Stefan IPS in Slovenia. During her master’s studies, she collaborated closely with the Parallel and Distributed Systems Laboratory at the Jozef Stefan Institute. During this time, she focused on machine learning applications to biomedical data and developed a unifying and extensible framework for evaluating neural network architectures for ECG arrhythmia classification.

At SCIoI, she is involved in Project 44 under the supervision of Prof. Alan Akbik. Currently, she is researching methods to prevent memorization of incorrect labels during neural network training.
