About Me

I am a Master's student in Computer Science at the Institute of Computing, University of Campinas (UNICAMP), where I am affiliated with the Laboratory of Visual Informatics (LIV). I received my B.Sc. in Computer Science from the Federal University of Ceara (UFC) in 2024, graduating Summa Cum Laude.

My research deals with fairness, ideological sycophancy, and the identification and mitigation of bias in large language models, with particular emphasis on Brazilian educational and societal benchmarks. I am also interested in knowledge graphs and retrieval-augmented generation as tools for grounding and evaluating the output of such models.


Research Interests

  • Bias and fairness in language models. Measuring how language models reproduce, amplify, or mitigate social, political, and demographic biases across diverse representation prompts.
  • Evaluation in the Brazilian context. Construction and analysis of benchmarks grounded in Brazilian social, educational (ENEM, FUVEST, UNICAMP), and cultural settings.
  • Ideological sycophancy and echo chambers. Political personalization, echo chamber dynamics, and sycophantic behaviour in language models, together with mitigation through retrieval-augmented generation.
  • Multimodal reasoning. Evaluation of small vision-language models on exam-based multimodal reasoning tasks and structured document understanding.
