Arjun Pawar is a fourth year student studying Computational Mathematics and Linguistics. He is currently working on his senior project in which he is exploring information-theoretic approaches to linguistics. He is conducting a corpus-based study of naturalistic child-caregiver interactions to understand quantitative differences in child-directed speech at various points in the acquisition timeline. He aims to carry out this study on English corpora and then extend it to observe cross-lingual differences in other corpora. In general, he is interested in applying computational tools and models for human cognition and using ideas from linguistics to inform technological applications in NLP. He got interested in studying the reverse-engineering of linguistic phenomena through a computational framework after being exposed to the Math, CS, Linguistics classes that UCLA offers and the interdisciplinary research that he had explored, as a result. In his free time, he enjoys learning about different languages, playing badminton, and watching movies.
