Biography

I am a curious individual, particularly fascinated by understanding the intricacies of the human mind and brain. Currently, I am channeling this passion through a Ph.D. with a focus on affective computing under the supervision of Dr. Guillaume Chanel. My aim is to utilize multiple modalities, including facial expressions, speech, and physiological measures recorded within social interactions or gaming contexts, to construct robust emotional representations. These representations, once developed, could potentially enhance human-computer interaction, and positively impact our daily lives.
