Mini Biography
I got my Bachelor of Science degree with high honor from the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering of Bogazici University. I was in the Signal Processing area. I did my undergraduate thesis with Prof. Kivanc Mihcak on undoing of arbitrary geometric attacks to watermarked images. In the summer of 2006, I worked at the University of California, Berkeley as a visiting researcher. I focused on vehicular communication and adhoc networks with Prof. Raja Sengupta. We collaborated with General Motors and California PATH. In September 2007, I joined Princeton University and got my masters degree in 2009. In my research at Princeton, I also collaborate with Olga Troyanskaya in Lewis Sigler Institute of Integrative Genomics and Rob Schapire in Computer Science. I am married to Siddika Parlak Polatkan.http://ee.princeton.edu/http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~blei/http://www.pacm.princeton.edu/%7Eingrid/http://ai.cs.princeton.edu/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Public.Publichttp://www.math.princeton.edu/ipai/https://cgi.math.princeton.edu/ideas/http://www.busim.ee.boun.edu.tr/%7Emihcak/http://www.busim.ee.boun.edu.tr/%7Emihcak/http://www.ce.berkeley.edu/%7Esengupta/http://www.caip.rutgers.edu/~parlak/http://www.caip.rutgers.edu/~parlak/shapeimage_2_link_0shapeimage_2_link_1shapeimage_2_link_2shapeimage_2_link_3shapeimage_2_link_4shapeimage_2_link_5shapeimage_2_link_6shapeimage_2_link_7shapeimage_2_link_8shapeimage_2_link_9shapeimage_2_link_10
