I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at KAUST, Saudi Arabia, specializing in Generative AI and conducting research on advanced topics in Generative and Large Language Models (LLMs). I bring over 11 years of combined academic and industrial experience in Computer Vision and Deep Learning across Sweden, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia.

Biography

I hold a PhD in Computer Vision and Deep Learning from Linköping University, Sweden, specializing in uncertainty estimation for sparse visual data. My PhD spanned a wide range of topics, gained through both academic research and industrial collaborations, including object detection and tracking, video object segmentation, optical flow estimation, and the application of object detection and tracking techniques in thermal imagery.

Research Interests

My current research focuses on various topics within Generative AI, including image generation and editing with diffusion models, employing foundation models to computer vision and graphics tasks, and working with multi-modal language models and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems.
