I received a PhD degree from the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science: Systems at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in May 2008. My research supervisors were professors Alfred Hero and Jeffrey A. Fessler. I also hold a M.Sc. degree from Tel Aviv University at the department of Electrical Engineering – Systems and a B.Sc. degree (cum laude) is from the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Ben Gurion University of the Negev. In the winter semester of 2004 I had the opportunity to work with professor Yaakov Bar-Shalom at the University of Connecticut. Office: EECS #4305 |

Research Interests My main interest is in Estimation Theory and its applications. Some specific examples are listed below. · Efficient Adaptive measurement scenarios. Specifically, I’m interested in efficient search policy of a medium containing very few points of interest, e.g., early detection of breast cancer tumors. In general the problem statement is how to design an optimal system given a certain budget. · Medical imaging applications. · Non-standard problems, where the Fisher Information Measure is singular or almost singular. Another example is when the parameters of interest lie on the boundaries of the parameter space. |
