I build reliability into multi-step AI systems: detecting, correcting, and calibrating errors in multi-hop retrieval and agent memory.

I'm an AI algorithm engineer working on multi-hop retrieval, cross-modal retrieval, and agent systems that run in production. My research asks what happens when one step of a long reasoning chain goes wrong, and how a system can notice and recover.

What happens when one hop goes wrong?

Long reasoning chains fail one step at a time. My work is about catching that step and repairing it, without throwing the whole chain away.

Q Were the directors of Film A and Film B born in the same country?

Multi-hop question answering with fault detection and repairA question splits into two branches: find each film's director, then each director's birthplace, then compare. One birthplace hop returns contradicting evidence; it is flagged, re-retrieved, and the final answer cites four verified documents.conflicts with director(B)Qquestiondirector(A)director(B)birthplace(·)birthplace(·)compareanswerNo4 sources cited

Research interests

  1. 01

    Multi-hop Retrieval

    Decompose hard questions into dependent hops and retrieve evidence for each.

  2. 02

    Agent Memory

    Keep long-lived memory accurate: what to store, revise, and retract.

  3. 03

    Reliability

    Detect, localise, and repair the step that went wrong instead of starting over.
