&amp;rsquo;s Center for Advanced AI, working on generative AI, agents, and reasoning—including work on LLM-based code generation (FALM), AI Refinery with NVIDIA, and multi-source genetic algorithms (MultiGA). My research focuses on fairness in human feedback and predicting human disagreement in subjective tasks (e.g., hate speech, offensive language) to improve model fairness. I completed my PhD at the
at RIT with Professor
.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have interned at Amazon Ads as an Applied Scientist Intern (2023), Meta in Summer 2022, and RPI (IBM Watson Project) in Summer 2019. I have also worked with the University of Kelaniya in Sri Lanka on a cloud-based electronic medical record system (LKEMR) for Sri Lanka, and my earlier work includes sociolinguistics on the evolution of &lt;em&gt;Sri Lankan English&lt;/em&gt; across generations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I enjoy the DevOps side of systems and building end-to-end pipelines. When I&amp;rsquo;m not at my desk, I enjoy traveling.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
