Rahul Aralikatte

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher at Mila - Quebec AI Institute working with Prof. Jackie Cheung, currently visiting Google Research. I also closely collaborate with AI4Bharat and build tools for Indic NLP. I finished my Ph.D. at the CoAStaL NLP lab at the University of Copenhagen under the supervision of Prof. Anders Søgaard. I do a bit of everything NLP, but currently focussed on text summarization and low-resource learning.
