Research

Research Overview

Sitting at the intersection of human-centred AI and automated data science, my research seeks to facilitate two-way communication between users and machines across the ML/data science life cycle. I develop frameworks that incorporate human expertise into automated pipelines, keeping users informed about a model's fairness, ethics, accountability, and transparency (FEAT). This work integrates ML/data science, knowledge-based programming, natural language processing (NLP), and information visualisation (InfoVis). I am an inventor on several US patents related to natural language-based AI technology. I am one of the founders of Arria (), a company specialising in data-to-text (D2T) natural language generation (NLG).
