Biography

  • Engineering degree from the Lebanese University - graduated in June 2010.
  • UBINET Masters from University of Nice Sophia Antipolis - graduated in August 2011.
  • Ongoing PhD at Maestro team, INRIA - expected graduation in September 2014.

    • Research activities

    The general topic of my thesis is "Belief Propagation in Complex Networks". My research interests include but are not limited to optimization problems concerned with spectral properties of graphs, average consensus, distributed optimization (gradient methods) and clustering using random walks on large scale networks.
