Raz Besaleli

Raz is Head of AI at Seek AI and a graduate research assistant at the NLP Lab at Montclair State University, where they are a final-semester MS student in computational linguistics. In 2021, Raz graduated from the Great Books Program at St. John's College with a BA in Liberal Arts.

Raz's current research interests are in computational semantics, where they focus on semantic parsing – notably SQL generation. Raz has also worked on research in the performance of transformer-based language models with morphologically rich languages, especially those that are highly agglutinative and/or polysynthetic, and display exceptional rates of productivity and holophrasis.
