About the Speakers

Arabella Sinclair

Lecturer in Knowledge, Information and Data Science at Dept of Information Studies, UCL

My research focuses on Natural Language Processing and Artificial Intelligence, with a particular emphasis on large language models (LLMs) and dialogue modelling: I study how humans use, process, and predict language, and how these insights can inform the development of more human-like computational models.
