Sabur Butt

Sabur Butt serves as a Postdoctoral Researcher at Tecnológico de Monterrey's Institute for the Future of Education (IFE), leading interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of Natural Language Processing and Education to develop AI-driven insights into human behavior.

His educational background includes:

• PhD in Computer Science from Centro de Investigación en Computación, Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN)
• Master of Science in Computing (with honors) from Centro de Investigación en Computación, Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN)
• Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Forman Christian College

Dr. Butt's research centers on Natural Language Processing applications, with core interests in Personality and Emotion Detection, Low Resource Languages (e.g., Urdu), and Question Answering. He develops machine/deep learning models to analyze behavioral patterns in text, particularly focusing on educational contexts and social dynamics. His work bridges computational linguistics with practical solutions for understanding human interactions.

Recent publications demonstrate strong thematic consistency in applying NLP to social and educational challenges. Key trends include personality profiling through ambivert scales, hope speech detection in low-resource languages, and AI systems for faculty development. These efforts emphasize real-world impact in education technology, mental health informatics, and inclusive language processing across diverse linguistic contexts.
