Aleksandra Bakalova

I am Sasha (short for Aleksandra) Bakalova, PhD student in LaCoCo Lab at Saarland University supervised by Prof. Michael Hahn. I am also a member of RTG ‘‘Neuroexplicit Models of Language, Vision, and Action’’.

I did my Masters in Language Science and Technology at Saarland University, and my undergraduate in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at HSE University. I learned a lot about deep learning at Yandex School of Data Analysis.

My research interests lie in the direction of interpretability, deep learning theory, and understanding what makes modern deep learning models so powerful. I’d be excited to work on anything that brings us closer to understanding what hides behind those matrix multiplications, how we can use it to build better models and use existing models in better ways.
