Majed El Helou

Postdoctoral researcher, conducting research in computational imaging and applied machine learning.

Welcome

:hourglass_flowing_sand: ~Last Update: August 2021~ :hourglass_flowing_sand:

I am a postdoctoral researcher at EPFL’s Image and Visual Representation Lab IVRL. My research is in computational imaging and applied machine learning (overlapping with signal/image processing, estimation theory, deep learning, computer vision, and optics).

Papers, code, and posters/presentations can be found on my publications page, and other resources like datasets under misc.
