− Implemented modern signal denoising algorithms for processing millimeter wave (mmW) imagery (Nonlocal means, anisotropic filtering)− Utilized mathematical image sharpening techniques to improve sharpness in mmW imagery− Performed image fusion of mmW and visual frames using various methods (discrete wavelet transform, object/region detection and blend.

Newark, DE

− Worked on analysis and detection techniques (i.e. side-channel analysis, functional testing) for hardware trojans in digital logic designs. Wrote Verilog code targeted to Xilinx FPGAs to stimulate a device-under-test in real-time to test out various detection schemes.
