Interests
I am interested in the development of NLP systems that are cognitively informed, emotionally sensitive, and socially responsible. The aim is to build AI for Humanity and other subjects: AI that not only performs well on benchmarks but also understands human narratives, emotions, and perceptions in ways that enable trust, wellbeing, and cultural inclusivity.
