معرفی
Prof. Amos Lapidoth is a Full Professor at ETH Zürich's Department of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, leading the Signal and Information Processing Lab. He holds a B.A. (summa cum laude) in Mathematics and B.Sc. (summa cum laude) in Electrical Engineering from the Technion, along with an M.Sc. from Technion and Ph.D. from Stanford University. Previously, he was an Associate Professor at MIT and held the KDD Career Development Chair in Communications and Technology.
His research focuses on Digital Communications and Information Theory, with contributions to coding theory, channel modeling, and signal processing. He has conducted R&D in wireless communications at the IDF Signal Corps Labs, earning two Creative Thinking Awards. His awards include the NSF CAREER Award and Rothschild Fellowship.
Recent work explores state-dependent channels with helpers, feedback-assisted communication, and identification over noisy channels. His lab develops theoretical frameworks for reliable communication in complex systems, with applications in coding, modulation, and network design.
