About
I finished my Master's in Computer Science and Engineering at University of Oulu, Finland in 2024.
Right now I work as a Project Researcher at University of Oulu, where I lead the NeuroClima EU Horizon project. My job involves creating AI systems that help policymakers, researchers, and regular people understand climate issues better.
What really gets me excited is working on Conversational AI, Natural Language Processing, Human-AI Interaction and AI Evaluation Methods.
Here's What I have Been Building
NeuroClima AI Platform
Industrial-scale conversational AI system serving policymakers and researchers in 4 languages
Voice-to-Value Review System
AI system converting voice reviews to well-structured written reviews using LLMs
Human-Robot Interaction Study
Natural language interaction study with Pepper humanoid robot analyzing human behavior
AI Evaluation Framework
LLM-as-Judge and Human-in-the-Loop evaluation systems for conversational AI
Multimodal Document Processing
Processing complex policy documents with text, figures, and tables using AI
Language Difficulties Analysis
Analyzing language difficulties in LLM response for different user groups
