I'm an associate professor in computer science at University of Maryland, College Park and a member of CLIP. Previously, I was an associate professor at UMass CS, and before that I was a Young Investigator at AI2.
My research interests lie broadly in natural language processing and machine learning. I'm currently excited about:
(1) Improving instruction following abilities of large language models for long-form generation
(2) Designing methods to evaluate long-form & multilingual text (e.g., for factuality and coherence)
(3) Building collaborative human-LLM systems to help human authors in creative writing tasks
(4) Increasing robustness of LLM-generated text detectors to attacks (e.g., paraphrasing)
