About Me

I am a PhD student in the Center of Doctoral Training in Natural Language Processing hosted by Institute for Language, Cognition and Computation supervised by Alex Lascarides and Subramanian Ramamoorthy

I am working on Interactive Task Learning and how the complexities of natural interaction can aid in learning novel tasks.

Research Interests

• Reasoning: exploring logical, probabilistic, and causal reasoning about the world to be able to answer complex queries.
• Grounding: incrementally learning grounding models as part of human-robot interaction in embodied conversation.
• Planning: solving sequential decision problems.

News

• [Feb. 2022] Our paper about incremental symbol grounding with complex referential expressions is accepted to NAACL 2022.

Publications

• Interactive Symbol Grounding with Complex Referential Expressions

Services

• Reviewing: EMNLP2022, EMNLP2023
• Teaching: during my time at the University of Edinburgh I have provided teaching support (TA, tutor, marker, demonstrator) for a variety of courses in the undergraduate and postgraduate studies covering topics in foundational artificial intelligence, probabilistic machine learning, and natural language processing.
