Abdelrahman Abdallah

Pronouns: He/Him

Hello. I’m Abdelrahman Abdallah, a final-year Ph.D. candidate advised by Professor Adam Jatowt at the Digital Science Center (DiSC), Department of Computer Science, University of Innsbruck. Currently, I am a research assistant at DiSC. Previously, I worked as a machine learning engineer at DISCO App in Cairo and at KMG Engineering in Kazakhstan, as a machine learning researcher at Satbayev University and Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, and as a research and teaching assistant at Assiut University in Egypt.

As a researcher in machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP), my work focuses on large language models (LLMs), information retrieval, and question answering. I am particularly interested in how LLMs can be used for document retrieval and reranking, robust QA on noisy or OCR text, and reasoning over temporal information in dynamic collections.

My research interests include:

• LLM-based Reranking & Information Retrieval
• Open-domain & Multilingual Question Answering
• Temporal Reasoning for QA & Retrieval
• Bias in Large Language Models
