Welcome!

I am Kyle, a Ph.D. student researcher in the Intelligent Systems program at the University of Pittsburgh.

Overall, I am interested in studying ways to ensure that object-based AI systems can effectively be used by people around the world.

Specific research interests of mine include:

  • Vision-language modeling
  • Model robustness under domain shift
  • Foundational AI models
  • Object detection
  • Prompt learning
  • AI robustness for diverse cultures and languages

I currently work in the computer vision group with Dr. Adriana Kovashka at the University of Pittsburgh.
