Current research
My research interest is in Natural Language Processing (NLP), specially information extraction and human-in-the-loop NLP. In a juxtaposition to NLP areas with web-scale datasets available, my research focuses on developing novel solutions to problems where training datasets are small, evolving, sparse or fragmented in nature. This can involve both finding new ways to fine-tune large language models and researching novel methods to get the most out of smaller models. I am interested in text/behaviour classification, few/zero shot learning, graph-based models, active learning, adversarial training, rationale-based training and argument mining.
