My primary area of interest is **uncertainty quantification (UQ)** on temporal data using recurrent neural networks, with applications to nuclear fusion and natural disaster management. This is the subject of my research in summer 2024, which is funded by the [AI Institute for Societal Decision Making (AI-SDM)](https://www.cmu.edu/ai-sdm/index.html). I am advised by [Arun Kuchibhotla](https://arun-kuchibhotla.github.io/), whose expertise includes forecasting methods and prediction intervals for temporal and online datasets. -Other general topics that interest me include: +Other topics that interest me include: -* Recurrent neural network (RNN) architectures and implementations - especially with a probabilistic outcome +* Recurrent neural network (RNN) architectures and implementations--especially with a probabilistic outcome * Time-series forecasting and online prediction * Reinforcement learning * Applications to international development - such as natural disaster management using drone imagery @@ -33,7 +33,6 @@ Other general topics that interest me include: * I love [painting](https://www.instagram.com/selina.carter.art), especially portraits.
