I am currently a Researcher at the AIML, working in the KIPS group with Prof. Dino Sejdinovic. My long-term research interests focus on ensuring reliable and efficient decision-making, driven by my concern about systems that make confident yet incorrect predictions and conclusions. Recently, my work has concentrated on the intersection of causality and machine learning, exploring areas such as causal discovery, treatment effect estimation, and causal machine learning.
