The Neural Network and AI Deep Insights Virtual Lab, composed of graduate students from diverse backgrounds, is part of the Data Science program at Northeastern University. Established in Summer 2024 by Dr. Nafa in collaboration with a dedicated team of graduate students, the lab serves as a hub for cutting-edge research in artificial intelligence and deep learning. The team actively engages in the academic community by exploring innovative research topics, fostering creativity, and contributing to the field through impactful publications.
Welcome to our research group! We specialize in Data Science (Deep Learning and AI). Our current projects include, but are not limited to:
The Natural Language Processing (NLP) research at the Neural Network and AI Deep Insights Virtual Lab, focuses on the intersection of deep learning and computational linguistics. The work explores innovative methodologies for text summarization, sentiment analysis, and the application of large language models in diverse domains.
A major area of interest in the lab's NLP research is the analysis and processing of complex datasets in order to improve the natural language understanding of AI systems. The work emphasizes not only the technical aspects of model optimization but also the ethical considerations in NLP, such as bias reduction and the responsible use of AI technologies. The research contributes to advancing the capabilities of AI in interpreting natural language and supports real-world applications like automated customer service, content generation, and multilingual communication.
