PhD Candidate in Information Retrieval (IR) at the University of Amsterdam (UvA), part of the IRLab.
With a strong background in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Information Retrieval, Iβm currently focused on cutting-edge research in areas such as:
- Conversational Search
- Distribution Shifts
- Adversarial Training
- Large Language Models (LLMs)
Feel free to check out my curriculum vitae for more details!
I hold a Masterβs degree from ENSIMAG (Grenoble, France), and have previously worked at Naver Labs Europe within the Search and Recommendation team. Currently, I am pursuing my PhD under the supervision of:
- Prof. Dr. Evangelos Kanoulas
- Dr. Mohammad Aliannejadi
My research interests revolve around improving IR systems to handle challenges in neural retrieval and adversarial conditions.
