Karina Nguyen

My research in machine learning aims to apply the state-of-art in open-source intelligence and reliable interfaces for AI deployment. Exploring robustness of vision models led me to work on a novel tool for anticipating AI model's failures and invent new investigative workflows.

I am supervised by Joseph Gonzalez, Trevor Darrell, Lisa Dunlap, and Neerja Thakkar at Berkeley AI Research. I am also co-leading the Interactive Reading Group at Cohere for AI.

Investigations

My work in visual open-source intelligence & human rights research involved data collection, evidence verification, satellite analysis, 3D reconstructions, legal submissions, interactive visualizations, investigative tools, and applied remote sensing.
