About

I’m Lubna Zahan Lamia, currently working as a Research Assistant at the Cognitive Agents and Interaction Lab (CAIL), University of Dhaka. My research focuses on the intersection of Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning, and Computational Linguistics. I’m particularly interested in how large language models construct, interpret, and frame human narratives—bridging semantic representation, sentiment modeling, and ethical AI. My current work spans analyzing perspective and bias in generative text of large language models and developing data-driven approaches that combine deep learning with interpretive linguistic analysis.
