Hi, I am Raj!
Ph.D. student at Interactive Computing, Georgia Tech.
Update: Starting September 2024, I will be at Stanford (with Prof Diyi Yang) as a visiting student working on using NLP for social good.
I am interested in building human-AI collaborative natural language processing models for social good. I am skilled in C++, Python, JAVA, Hadoop, Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning algorithms, and Data Structures.
I want to pursue a Ph.D. program with a focus on understanding the human behavioral alignment of language models and their impact on social decision-making. During my Master’s program at Georgia Tech, I have been fortunate to work on a variety of projects that use language processing for the betterment of online mental health platforms. This has equipped me with a strong foundation of computational social science methods along with a well-rounded experience of working with popular language processing algorithms.
