Rima Alaifari
I am an Assistant Professor for Applied Mathematics at ETH Zürich. I mainly work in the fields of applied analysis and inverse problems. My research interests include stability analysis and regularization of inverse problems, tomographic reconstruction, applied harmonic analysis and signal processing. I am an associated member of the ETH AI Center. Here is a short video portrait of me.
News
Dr. Francesca Bartolucci, former postdoctoral researcher in my group, is now tenure-track assistant professor at TU Delft! Congratulations, Francesca!
My talk at the Women in Data Science Zürich Conference is now online.
Open positions for PhD candidates/Postdocs! If you are interested, you can apply directly via email. Prospective candidates are expected to have a strong background in applied harmonic analysis, inverse problems, deep learning or related fields.
I will be giving a plenary talk at the 8th International Conference on Computational Harmonic Analysis in September 2022.
Congratulations to Matthias Wellershoff for successfully defending his PhD thesis in March 2022!
I am organising a mini-symposium on “Advances in phase retrieval” at Curves and Surfaces 2022.
Dr. Jesse Railo, a postdoctoral researcher in my group, has won the Finnish Inverse Prize for his dissertation. Congratulations!
My talk in the One World Mathematics of INformation, Data, and Signals (1W-MINDS) Seminar is now available here.
Student thesis projects available, especially for CSE students on MSc level. Send me an email if you are interested!
My SNF funded project on “Mathematical analysis of the phase retrieval problem” has launched in October 2019.
