PostDoc at IT:U, Austria - Ph.D. (NLP) from MBZUAI, Abu-Dhabi - Masters (AI) from NJUST, Nanjing China.
@ IT:U, Linz, Austria
I am Postdoctoral Researcher at IT:U Interdisciplinary Transformation University, Austria, working with Prof. Yufang Hou on misrepresentation of scientific claims in Media. During my PhD at MBZUAI, I explored Media Profiling to assess bias and factuality of News Media with Professor Preslav Nakov. One of the objectives was to develop a efficient methodology for real-time analysis, minimizing reliance on extensive data crawling, and focusing on analyzing the media’s position through media graphs. I am also interested in empathic comprehension, emotional intelligence and cultural impact in LMs. Before joining MBZUAI, I worked on Conversational AI for low-resource languages at Center for Language Engineering (CLE). I completed my Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence in 2020 at NJUST in Nanjing, China, under the supervision of Professor Jianfeng Lu.
