Academic Achievements
- CIKM'25: +VeriRel: Verification Feedback to Enhance Document Retrieval for Scientific Fact-Checking
- ICTIR'25: The Next Phase of Scientific Fact-Checking: Advanced Evidence Retrieval from Complex Structured Academic Papers
Research Experience
- A second-year PhD student at the University of Sheffield, working on scientific fact-checking under the supervision of Dr. Xi Wang and Dr. Mark Stevenson.
Education
- Earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Computer Science at the University of Manchester. Became interested in AI during a research project supervised by Prof. Steve Furber, and later explored healthcare fact-checking in his master’s project under the supervision of Prof. Goran Nenadic.
Background
- Broadly interested in topics related to fact-checking, including information retrieval, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and natural language processing for verifying scientific claims. Focused on bridging the gap in evidence retrieval for scientific fact-checking, developing specialised retrieval systems capable of handling complex, full-paper scientific literature.
Miscellany
- Especially grateful to his tutor Dr. Oliver Rhodes, whose support and encouragement helped him navigate a particularly challenging period.
