Research interests

In my independent study, I researched about extracting noun phrases based on the relevance to the content. As the explored data was in the form of audios this interested me to further research in Dlalogue and information flow. Within this theme, the main focus is on areas of inference, reasoning and argumentation in dialogue, question generation in dialogue and dialogue generation for information presentation. This might give better data from the incomplete audios on extraction.

Hobbies

I like to travel and learn more about different cultures and their histories. I like to go to beaches and do hiking. Exploring new cuisines has been one of my new interests. I like dance, P.S. not a trained dancer.

Fun fact

I love to watch tech memes, it ease up my mind by seeing those.
