Ivan Kondyurin
Ivan Kondyurin is a PhD researcher in the Intelligent Systems department at the Delft University of Technology, within the Socially Perceptive Computing group. He has obtained a Bachelor's degree in Computational Linguistics at Saint Petersburg University (Russia) and a Master's degree in Artificial Intelligence at Utrecht University.
His research focuses on developing computational tools that use multimodal data for analyzing complex human behavior in various social settings,inferring narratives about their intentions and their experience in general. To achieve this, he is working on formalizing social intentions in terms of machineperceivable behavioral features and modeling them by means of multi-task machine learning.
The fields of his primary interest for application of such tools include immigrants’ integration in social groups, machine-mediated events for facilitated interactions, such as speed-dating and group games, and machineassisted socialization of neurodivergent individuals. Relevant areas for this research involve social signal processing, human-centered computer vision, NLP and use of LLMs for language style analysis in particular.
