Joseph Tabrikian received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Tel-Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel, in 1986, 1992, and 1997, respectively. From 1996 to 1998, he was with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), Duke University, Durham, NC, USA, as an Assistant Research Professor. In 1998, he joined the Department of ECE at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU), Beer-Sheva, Israel, where he served as Head of the Department during 2017–2019. In May 2019, he founded the School of ECE at BGU and led it until August 2021. He served as an Associate Editor (AE) for the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing during 2001–2004 and 2011–2015, and he is currently a Senior Area Editor (SAE) for this journal. He also served as AE (2012–2015) and SAE (2015–2018) for the IEEE Signal Processing Letters. He was a member of the IEEE Sensor Array and Multichannel (SAM) Technical Committee during 2010–2015 and served as Technical Program Co-Chair of the IEEE SAM 2010 Workshop. He was a member of the EURASIP Signal Processing for Multisensor Systems (SPMuS) Technical Committee during 2015–2021 and of the IEEE Signal Processing Theory and Methods (SPTM) Technical Committee during 2017–2022.
Prof. Tabrikian has co-authored seven award-winning papers in IEEE conferences and workshops. His research interests include estimation and detection theory, performance bounds, learning algorithms, MIMO and automotive radar, cognitive and FDA radar, and advanced radar signal processing. He delivered plenary talks at IEEE RadarConf 2025 and the ICSIDP 2024 conference. Prof. Tabrikian is a Fellow of the IEEE and a Fellow of the Asia-Pacific Artificial Intelligence Association (AAIA).
