I am a master's student of Data Science at Mehran University of Engineering and Technology. A highly skilled Research Assistant with a strong academic foundation and extensive experience in Explainable AI (XAI), Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing (NLP). Proficient in Python programming using PyTorch, I specialize in developing interpretable AI models for critical applications such as healthcare. With a Master’s degree and a proven track record of impactful research, I am passionate about advancing ethical and transparent AI systems. I am eager to delve deeper into the field of linguistic analysis, specifically focusing on psycholinguistics to better understand how human language processing can be modeled and interpreted by AI systems.
