Bio
I am an algorithm researcher at Weizmann Institute focusing on computer vision and remote sensing in Rudich's Lab.I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science (CS) at Kingston University London, under the supervision of Jean-Christophe Nebel. Previously, I completed my M.Sc. in CS at the Weizmann Institute of Science, under the supervision of Ronen Basri, and I received my undergraduate degree in CS from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
