Currently, I hold a research assistant position with the Multimedia Lab, Research Center CAMPUS, University Politehnica of Bucharest (UPB), and with the Military Equipment and Technologies Research Agency (METRA), Ministry of National Defence.
I am also enrolled in a master's degree programme on “Applied Electronics in Robotics and Automation for Security and Defence” with the Military Technical Academy of Bucharest.
My research interests cover machine learning and computer vision techniques with applications in national security.
