Mohsen obtained his Master’s degree in Dynamics and Control from Sharif University of Technology with a study on “State Estimation of Nonlinear Systems Using a Swarm-based Optimization Algorithm.” His primary research interests lie in dynamics and control, swarm robotics, optimization algorithms, and network dynamics.

At SCIoI, he is involved in Project 27, titled “Speed-Accuracy Tradeoffs in Collective Estimation,” led by Pawel Romanczuk (Humboldt University of Berlin) and Heiko Hamann (University of Konstanz.) The main objective of this project is to gain insights into how modifications at the individual level affect both the accuracy and speed of collective estimation. Specifically, the project investigates the influence of factors such as the diversity of opinions, exploration-exploitation behaviors, and communication networks on the dynamics of the collective process.
