I'm currently a Research Associate at the Department of Engineering at the Cambridge University, United Kingdom. Prior to that, I was a postdoc and PhD student at the Department of Automatic Control at Lund University from January 2012 till December 2017.
In Feburary 2017, I received a Ph.D. degree from Lund University. During my undergraduate studies, I was a double degree student of Industrial Mathematics (Technomathematik) at TU Kaiserslautern and Engineering Mathematics (Teknisk Matematik) at LTH Lund. I received a Diploma degree from TU Kaiserslautern and an MSc degree from LTH Lund in Decemeber 2011.
So far, my research interests included theoretical developments in Model reduction, Positive and Invariant Systems, Low-rank/Sparse Approximation and Optimization, as well as their applications to problems in Machine Learning, System Identification and Single Processing.
