I conduct applied research in the field of artificial intelligence using deep learning with applications to computer vision. I work in the emerging growth incubator @ Intel, where I worked on diverse problems such as skeleton tracking, person detection, face recognition, segmentation of lidar point-clouds, generation of synthetic data for computer vision tasks and more. Before that, I did a post-doc at Duke University, where I conducted academic research in several different fields, including machine learning and computational imaging (mainly transmission x-ray CT). Before that, I did my PhD at Tel-Aviv University, where I worked on electromagnetic wave theory. I am very passionate about using AI to improve people’s lives.
