Working to train algorithms via Natural Language Processing (NLP) for the FAA. Currently using narratives from NASA's Aviation Safety Reporting System and NTSB Database to develop better threat category models based on Mistral and Llama.• Assisted Natural Language Processing model by manually annotating and inputting over 100 aviation incidents into a training algorithm.• Studied information on BERT language model to support research into aviation incident threat categorization, prediction, and prevention.• Advanced understanding of a Mistral AI model’s effectiveness by re-evaluating and analyzing answers from question prompts, as well as formulating a score based on the answers’ accuracy and relevancy.• Educated others by presenting about the efficacy of artificial intelligence models on recognizing and interpreting human speech.
