Dr. Toqir Ahmad Rana (Pakistan) – Teaching Fellow

Dr. Toqir directs his research towards the sentiment classification of Roman Urdu text, addressing the unique challenges posed by this language. As the third most widely used language globally, Roman Urdu lacks extensive work in sentiment analysis. Driven by the unstructured nature of the language and the absence of necessary language resources, he focuses on standardizing Roman Urdu text and implementing sentiment-based classification. Dr. Toqir aims to contribute to the advancement of sentiment analysis in the Roman Urdu language domain, recognizing its significance given the substantial user base. His work seeks to bridge existing gaps in language processing tasks for Roman Urdu, ultimately paving the way for more effective sentiment analysis in this linguistic context.
