🎓 My PhD Journey

Every journey toward new knowledge begins with a single step. I officially started my PhD in Computer Science at the School of Computing, University of Otago, joining a vibrant research community focused on innovation, collaboration, and impactful scientific discoveries.

🔬 Research Focus

My research lies at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, and Digital Twin Systems. Specifically, I explore:

  • Explainable modelling for complex multi-agent interactions
  • Optimization strategies for collaborative decision-making
  • Trustworthy and interpretable AI-driven digital twins
  • Applying explainable multi-agent systems to real-world engineering scenarios
