I have joined the faculty of TTI-Chicago in February 2008. Prior to
that, I was a post-doctoral researcher at the Department of Computer Science of Brown University where I worked with
Michael Black.
I received my PhD degree at MIT where I worked at
CSAIL with Trevor
Darrell on computer vision and machine learning. My thesis topic
was Learning Task-Specific Similarity.
Before coming to MIT, I was a graduate student in the Computer Science Department of the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, Israel, where I got my MSc thesis under the advisement of Ran El-Yaniv and Yoram Baram. I got my undergraduate degree in Math and CS from Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel.
