• I am the final-year (fifth-year) CS PhD student co-advised by Prof. Srijan Kumar and Prof. Mustaque Ahamad homed in School of Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology.

• My foucs of research area is Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing (NLP). My research topic is to design advanced NLP methods to characterize, detect, and mitigate incorrect and harmful contents generated by: (1) human, e.g., misinformation, fake news, hate speech, rumor, and fraud; (2) machines, e.g., hallucinations in/alignment of/evaluation of Large Language Models (LLMs).
  • Methodology: Multi-task Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Few-shot Learning, Representation learning
  • Application: Text Classification, Text Generation, Computational Social Science
• I am looking for full-time research scientist/data scientist/applied scientist/machine learning engineer positions or similar roles. Please message me if you are hiring or know good positions!
