I am a Ph.D student in the school of electrical and computer engeneering in Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. I am part of Prof. Tirza Routtenberg's lab that specializes in signal processing and optimization with applications in power systems. In my M.Sc. studies, I focused on anomaly detection in power systems. Previously, in my BS.c. I majored in signal processing and communications. Since 2018, I am posing as a teaching assistant in the signal processing introductory course.

Current Research Interests

Statistical graph signal processing with applications in smart grid:

  • Monitoring power system, state estimation, event detection

  • Power system cyber-security

  • Estimation after selection for graphical models

  • Sparse recovery for graphical models

Awards
