Biography

I am a postdoctoral researcher at Instituto de Telecomunicações. I obtained my Ph.D. in September 2023 from the Computer Science Department of the University of Maryland, College Park under the guidance of Marine Carpuat.

My research focuses on developing adaptable, controllable, multilingual, and efficient natural language generation models that can incorporate contextual information (either explicitly provided or implied by world knowledge). I have also worked on evaluating existing as well as contributing new automatic and human evaluation methods to assess whether the AI generated text fulfills a desideratum or appropriately handles contextual information.
