Esra Erten was received the B.S degree in Geodesy and Photogrammetry Engineering and the M.S.E.E. degree in Satellite Communication and Remote Sensing from Istanbul Technical University, Turkey, in 2003 and 2005, respectively. She took the Ph.D. degree from the department of Computer Vision and Remote Sensing at Berlin University of Technology, 2010. She was with the High-Frequency Institute, German Aerospace Center (DLR), Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany, from April 2008 to June 2010, where she worked on information theory for multi-channel SAR images. Since 2011, she is with the Chair of Earth Observation and Remote Sensing, Institute of Environmental Engineering, ETH Zurich. Her research interests include information extraction, SAR and optical images understanding; in particular information theory, multivariate statistics, polarimetry and interferometry.
