Doğa Yılmaz (CS), earned his B.Sc. degree in Computer Science, and subsequently, he secured admission to the M.Sc. in Artificial Intelligence program along with a prestigious Fellowship at Özyeğin University. During his M.Sc., Doğa worked as a research assistant specializing in "Inverse Rendering" at OzU's Vision and Graphics Lab. His academic achievements include notable publications in international journals and conferences. Additionally, Doğa actively contributes to the academic community as a valued reviewer for various academic journals and conferences.

Following his graduation, Doğa continued his journey at Fishency Innovation as an R&D Software Engineer in Norway. Here, he contributes to innovative projects focused on underwater 3D reconstruction of Atlantic salmon, with the ultimate goal of enhancing offshore salmon farming efficiency. Doğa is at the forefront of developing technologies that promise a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future for food production.

Taha (CS), had participated various projects during his studies in Özyeğin University. He was a member of an agent, which had 1st rank in Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC). He had his PhD program in Southampton University in artificial intelligence and trust understanding of data with full scholarship.

He is working under the project, TUnDRA: Trust Understanding of Data and Reasoning Algorithms, which is funded by UK's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), covers topics around robust and discrete optimization techniques. He also worked on CyPrIAAn: Cyber Predictive Intelligence for Asset-based Analytics, which allow cyber analysts to predict both future attacks and the next steps of evolving cyber-attacks under UK Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) funding. After his PhD, he kept working in these projects and he had the chance to present his works in the international conferences. 

In 2022, Taha started wo work in an international investment bank, Goldman Sachs as a data engineer. He is working to increase the efficiency of the customers using artificial intelligence techniques in manufacturing and industrial areas with a UK based start up

Osman Furkan Kınlı (CS 2018),obtained his master's degree in Computer Science the following year. Within the scope of his master's thesis, he worked on similar image retrieval using Capsule Networks. He is currently continuing his doctoral thesis work. His research areas cover image processing, computer vision, image manipulation and restoration, illuminance and colors, and computational photography. He has achieved awards in international competitions related to night photography rendering in consecutive years. He has received the best reproducibility report and the best reviewer awards in international challenges on the reproducibility of academic research in Computer Science. In addition to his doctoral studies, he has also worked as a teaching assistant in undergraduate courses and as a research assistant in different research projects for his department. Furthermore, as venturing into the entrepreneurial journey in early 2020, he founded a Canadian-based company called T-Fashion, which provides services in AI-driven fashion trend analysis and generative fashion design.
