About Haris Riaz
I am a PhD student at the University of Arizona. My primary area of interest is the faithfulness and causality of reasoning in Large Language Models. Specifically I study strategies for internally integrating knowledge from symbolic reasoners in LLMs via reward modeling, and generating synthetic reward feedback data using weak supervision techniques. I have previously worked on meta-algorithms for synthetic data generation, incorporating causal reasoning and pragmatics into retrieval augmented generation (RAG) frameworks as a downstream application of my research interest, and exploiting linguistic hints as weak supervision for the NER task.
