Short Bio: I am currently a postdoc at Caltech, working with Prof. Michelle Effros. I received my B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the Technion - I.I.T.

Research Interests:

  • Network source coding.
  • Prediction and sequential decision making. Source coding. Statistical signal processing. Filtering and denoising.
  • Coding theory. Performance analysis of codes.
