Personal profile
About Me
I am a Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Engineering at Bar-Ilan University, as well as a member of the Center for Research in Applied Cryptography and Cyber Security.
My research interests lie in theoretical computer science, machine learning in general and clustering in particular, algorithmic game theory and privacy. Differential privacy has been the focus of my research in last years.
