About

I'm a final-year PhD candidate in AI/ML, with a focus on computer vision and multimodal language models for video understanding in the cultural domain. Recently, I was a research intern at the National Institute of Informatics in Tokyo, where I worked on collection-level understanding of videos, with a focus on extracting trends from a large set of TV advertisements using multimodal LLMs.
