Education

I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Distributed Information Systems Lab of EPFL in Switzerland, supervised by Prof. Karl Aberer. My current research is on Data-Driven Privacy, where I work on content and context-aware techniques to assist end-users in guarding their online privacy. I have been applying this approach to automatically assess the sensitivity of users' data, to better inform them about the potential of adversaries, and to spot unwanted online content. I am currently investigating the usage of deep learning for developing new privacy enhancing technologies for textual and visual content.
