Research Interests

My research focuses on the intersection of eye-tracking and natural language processing (NLP), with particular emphasis on employing eye movement data to evaluate text readability and support automatic text simplification. A complementary line of work explores the application of a paired perplexity strategy using small-scale language models to identify linguistic markers of cognitive decline, particularly for categorizing dementia and Alzheimer’s disease patients.
