About

I'm a PhD student at UAEU and KU Leuven, researching graph-based approaches to data selection in machine learning. My work focuses on making ML more efficient by intelligently selecting the most informative training instances.

My research interests include instance selection, graph neural networks, attention mechanisms, and scalable machine learning methods.
