Research Overview

My research focuses on modern AI technologies, from fundamental model development to healthcare applications. I identify major AI trends and adapt them for domains underserved by major industry players, particularly in health.

My research interests include (but are not limited to):

  • Few-Shot Learning — Learning with limited labeled data
  • Diversity in data & models — Integrating diversity of data and model representations to improve learning
  • Large Language Models — Diffusion models, transformers, and multimodal architectures
  • AI for Healthcare — Multimodal medical data integration with possibly missing modalities
  • Graph Signal Processing — Signal analysis on irregular domains, neuroimaging applications
