I’m a Ph.D. student at Yale University, working with of Dionysis Kalogerias. Currently, I’m also a research intern at Google NYC. I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Bilkent University.
My academic interests center around large language models (LLMs). I focus on developing frameworks to explain their behavior and enhance their robustness against various challenges. Additionally, I work on reinforcement learning (RL), particularly its limitations.
My research aims to uncover the theoretical foundations of these limitations and develop novel solutions to address them. I strive to design holistic strategies and explanations that advance current knowledge, paving the way for safer and more robust learning systems.
My research areas include but are not limited to:
- robustness of LLMs
- reinforcement learning
- applications of RL in finance and wireless communications
