Research Experience
- Currently a Simons postdoctoral fellow at the Computational Psycholinguistics lab, MIT, under the supervision of Roger Levy and Elika Bergelson. Formerly, worked at Meta AI, LSCP (Paris, France), and GIPSA (Grenoble, France).
Education
- Ph.D. from GIPSA, Grenoble, France, defended in September 2023.
Background
- Research Interests: Intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Sciences. Research focuses on language development in infants and machines, particularly developing and democratizing artificial neural networks for automatic analysis of children's language environment and linguistic production (supervised learning), and running human-inspired computer simulations to build more efficient algorithms and identify mechanisms driving language acquisition in infants (unsupervised/self-supervised learning). Field: Computational Psycholinguistics.
