Research Interests
My research interests center on understanding and optimizing the relationship between material structure and electrical performance in advanced functional materials for electronic and energy applications. I combine experimental insights with modern Machine Learning (ML) and Active Learning (AL) techniques to develop efficient, data-driven approaches for material characterization, property prediction, and performance enhancement. My work emphasizes reducing experimental complexity through intelligent data selection while uncovering meaningful patterns that can guide the design of next-generation, high-efficiency materials and devices.
