Sourav Saha
Software Engineer & Researcher
About Me
I'm a research-driven software engineer with a deep interest in Natural Language Processing, Large Language Models (LLMs) and Explainable AI (XAI). I completed my undergraduate thesis under the supervision of Dr. Mohammed Moshiul Hoque, where I worked on aspect-based sentiment analysis for Bangla texts. Since 2021, I have been an active member of the CUET NLP Lab, where my work has centered on low-resource language processing, cross-lingual transfer, and the interpretability of neural models.
I'm actively seeking PhD opportunities that bridge my engineering background with exploratory research in building intelligent and interpretable AI systems for low-resource languages.
