Short Intro

Full bio→

I am working as an AI Engineer at Penta Global Limited, and was previously a research assistant at the Center for Computational & Data Sciences (CCDS), Independent University, Bangladesh. My research is in natural language processing, with a focus on LLM agents, LLM post-training, and the evaluation of language and vision-language models. Currently, I am working on reinforcement learning, adversarial policy optimization, and on-policy self-distillation for LLMs, especially in settings without labeled data. My work has been published at ACL, WACV and AACL.

    Formal Verification for LLM Reasoning: Solvers and Theorem Provers

    How solvers and proof assistants check LLM reasoning: solver feedback on partial programs, formal logic checks inside a chain of thought, and LLM theorem provers for Lean, Isabelle and Coq that retrieve, search, repair and learn from the checker.

    Reward Models for Reasoning: ORMs and PRMs

    How outcome and process reward models judge reasoning: scoring the final answer or every step, where their step labels come from, why GRPO already contains one, how verifiers that write and run checks work, and how to train them with few or no labels.
