- Researching mitigating threats and evaluating defenses for poisoning attacks on dialog systems (chatbots). Evaluating toxicity-focused approaches such as classifier-based data sanitization, conditional text generation, and output steering and exploring content-agnostic methods that may be less susceptible to adversarial perturbations. Submitted 1st author paper titled Towards Secure Dialog-based Learning for Open-Domain Chatbots to the 2023 Annual Computer Security Applications Conference (ACSAC).- Researching the use of generative models to create synthetic data using methods such as VAEs, VQ-VAES, and diffusion models with the objective of augmenting datasets to improve the performance of classifiers.

Member of the Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Speech Recognition agile development teams responsible for the following:- Development and design of new post optical character recognition (OCR) processing components to successfully improve the recognition accuracy from text captured in screenshots using .NET with trie and medical dictionary lookup algorithms.- Development and design of new statistical and adaptive based application components for finding likely errors in radiology reports based on the given medical procedure.

Cincinnati, Oh

Member of the Natural Language Processing (NLP) agile development team responsible for the following- Development of many NLP rules using .NET, NLP rules library, and regular expressions to process medical reports to find likely deficiencies and errors in order to provide feedback to health care providers during the documentation process, resulting in higher quality reports for the patient.- Development and design of a multi-threaded automated testing tool with an embedded browser that was capable of processing thousands of medical reports through an NLP engine resulting in HTML based reports for other developers and quality engineers to improve and test the product.
