I’m Mir Tafseer Nayeem, a third-year Computing Science PhD student at the University of Alberta, advised by Prof. Davood Rafiei. My research primarily focuses on Natural Language Processing (NLP), with special emphasis on Human-centered NLP, Summarization, and Multilingual and Cross-Lingual NLP.
My PhD research involves human-centric modeling of content across various modalities, including text, tables, images, and ratings, particularly considering two key factors: (1) who are the creators of the content and (2) to whom the model will serve, specifically the intended audience. Below, you can find an overview of my research and its broader implications.
My research is generously supported by Huawei PhD Fellowship. My work was previously nominated for Best Paper Award and selected as Area Chair Favorite Paper at COLING 2018.
For additional information, please see my CV and publications.
