About me
Currently pursuing PhD at Mangalore University, India.
Working on automatic pathological voice identification using ML and DL
Mail: sharalmucs@gmail.com
My research primarily revolves around the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in various domains. I am particularly intrigued by the way NLP technologies can enhance human-computer interaction, automate language tasks, and unlock valuable insights from vast amounts of speech and textual data. My work often explores topics such as sentiment analysis and Identification of voice disorders.
