SELECTED RESEARCH PROJECTSMentalGPT: Harnessing AI for Compassionate Mental Health Support (AAIC accepted, AMIA & EMNLP under review) Finetuned LLaMA2, Mistral, and other SOTA 7B models with QLoRA method on GPT-generated data and real-life interview data to provide mental health advice, outperforming all base models and GPT4 on 7 evaluation metrics 30%+. Developed a benchmark dataset tailored for mental health applications, featuring simulations and scenarios from professional counseling examinations, facilitating performance evaluation of models like Fastchat, Gemini and GPT-4. MoodShaker: Blend your mood  Custom Cocktails at a Click! (2nd Place, Wharton Hack-AI-Thon, Technical Track) Developed MoodShaker, an AI platform transforming cocktail discovery with personalized recipes tailored to users' moods and tastes, using OpenAI's GPT-4, Gradio, and Soundraw, hosted on Hugging Face Spaces for a novel experience. Delivered 600+ customized cocktail recommendations for users within the first week of launch. Trustworthy AI in Healthcare (NeurIPS 2023 Main Track) Innovated a framework to reduce correlation disparities linked to protected attributes in CCA, enhancing fairness in healthcare decision-making and mitigating discriminatory outcomes. Maintained global projection matrices in CCA, aligning correlation levels with group-specific matrices, effectively mitigating unfairness without sacrificing accuracy as validated on synthetic and real datasets (NHANES, ADNI, MHAAPS). NHANES Database Analysis Screened 168 valid exposomes and phenotypes from 1,192 variables and handled missing data with the MICE algorithm. Identified key factors affecting phenotypic age using 10 machine learning regression models with cross-validation. Conducted mediation analysis to uncover causal links between environmental exposures and the gap between phenotypic and chronological age, incorporating biological variables and visualizing results using D3 libraries. Applied Fair CCA to analyze the interplay of phenotypic, environmental, and socio-economic factors on health outcomes.
