Information Bottleneck Driven Deep Video Compression—IBOpenDVCW

Timor Leiderman received his Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the Holon Institute of Technology (HIT) in 2016 and is currently pursuing a Master of Science degree at the same institution. His research interests include algorithmic research, computer vision and video compression, where he aims to develop innovative solutions within these fields.

Prof. Yosef Ben Ezra,   Dean of the Engineering Faculty at the Holon Institute of Technology, received his Ph.D. from Tel Aviv University. During 2003-2005 Prof. Ben-Ezra was the principal researcher in the joint industry-academy project TRANSMOR focusing on the automatic detection and classification of power transients in WDM optical communication networks. In the period of years 2007-2009 Prof. Yosef Ben-Ezra was the principal researcher in a joint industry-academy project, DIAMOND that developed high-spectral-efficient modulation techniques for modern optical communications.  In the framework of the MAGNET project Tera-Santa Prof. Ben-Ezra developed the novel method of OFDM based on Multiwavelets. He is currently working on the silicon photonic implementation of the Multiwavelet OFDM in Peta-Cloud consortium.  He has co-authored over 90 papers in international journals and conferences in the fields of semiconductor physics and nonlinear effects, and optical communication. He is the author of 15 chapters in scientific books and of 70 patents.
