Honours Thesis: The Mental Representation of Symbolic Numerals

Department of Psychology, The Ohio State University

• Develop computational methods for communicating neural network metacognition to human users, with the goal of improving human–AI collaboration and decision-making.
• Apply advanced quantitative cognitive models (including Systems Factorial Technology and General Recognition Theory) to test processing independence and interactions in social and cognitive decision-making tasks.

Psychology Department, University of Texas at San Antonio

• Combined human perceptual judgments and computer-vision estimates to improve classification in an offline melanoma image dataset.
• Used General Recognition Theory to examine perceptual interactions and feature integration in medical image decision-making.
