AI Safety, Formal Methods, and Engineering
An autonomous discovery system where the LLM acts as an active researcher. Rediscovered the "Shortened Golay Code" ($[22,11,6]$) autonomously using SAT-seeded Genetic Algorithms and Black-Box Optimization.

Mathematical formalization of the "Santa Claus" problem: where an LLM's external behavior (compliance) diverges from its internal state due to awareness of monitoring.


Investigating the efficacy of Foundation Models (TimeGPT) in hydrological time-series forecasting compared to traditional statistical methods.

A novel approach combining visual encoders and language models to solve complex geometry and algebra problems involving diagrams.
