Joseph Marvin Imperial
Kumusta! I'm Joseph. I'm a UKRI CDT Doctoral Researcher at the University of Bath's Integrated Ph.D. Program in Accountable, Responsible, and Transparent AI (also called ART-AI).
I conduct research in the fields of Natural Language Processing (NLP), particularly in controllable language generation, language assessment, and low-resource evaluation. On the sidelines, I'm also interested in helping the government shape better regulatory policies on the use of powerful (generative) AI models such as ChatGPT to maximize their full potential in various fields, including education, research, and business while maintaining responsible use.
You may visit my Google Scholar page for the complete list of my previous research engagements.
I'm originally from the Philippines but am currently based in the UK for the rest of my Ph.D. studies. I'm also affiliated with the Department of Computer Science and Human Language Technology (HLT) Lab at National University, Philippines, but on study leave.
