Mehrdad Farahani

Doctoral Student at Data Science and AI

I'm interested in natural language processing and representation learning for conversational AI because I believe AI will inevitably affect all aspects of our lives sooner or later, mainly how we communicate and share knowledge. I started my PhD position at Chalmers University of Technology in 2022. The purpose of my PhD is to explore whether general representations of spoken conversation can be learned through self-supervised learning.
