experience

PhD student
Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Tübingen, Germany
Research focus: Collective action in machine learning and development of generative model frameworks. Studied how a change of optimization and learning algorithm affects the success of collective action. Investigated the connection between density estimation to a simpler training algorithm for WGANs. Supervised by Samira Samadi (MPI-IS) and Amartya Sanyal (University of Copenhagen). Previous work in the Perceiving Systems department, developing a 3D articulated model of laboratory rats with Michael J. Black (MPI-IS), Silvia Zuffi (IMATI-CNR) and Sergi Pujades (INRIA) using computer vision tools.
Research Assistant
Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel
Applied signal processing and matched filtering on gravitational waves data to detect binary black holes. Worked with Barak Zackay.
MSc research
The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel
Developed an algorithm to estimate kinematic parameters of flies from video using a 3D model. Supervised by Tsevi Beatus.
QA Automation Engineer
Intel, Petah Tikva, Israel
Developed and maintained scripts for automated testing and quality assurance.
