Shirin Jalali has joined the ECE Department as an Assistant Professor. She received her M.Sc in Statistics and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. Prior joining Rutgers, she worked as a research scientist at AI Lab at Nokia Bell Labs. Her interestes span a range of problems related to i) developing theoretically-founded computationally-efficient solutions to understand and address various issues rising in modern computational imaging, such as speckle noise and snapshot imaging, ii) online learning, iii) structure learning, and iv) developing an information theoretic understanding of neural networks and deep learning.
