Exploring how intelligent systems learn from human behavior — from deep reinforcement learning to the digital traces we leave on social media.
I am a lecturer with a focused interest in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning, particularly Deep Reinforcement Learning. My research centers on Location-Based Social Network (LBSN) data derived from social media platforms, exploring patterns and insights that bridge computational intelligence with real-world applications.
Profile
My work sits at the intersection of computational intelligence and human behavior. I study how Location-Based Social Network (LBSN) data — the traces people leave through check-ins, posts, and interactions on social media — can be modeled with deep learning and reinforcement learning to better understand mobility, preference, and decision-making. Alongside research, I teach courses that connect these ideas to practical, hands-on skills for students in Data Science.
