I am a PhD student currently working on the neural machine translation of user-generated content (e.g. social media posts).
Nishimwe is a Rwandan name meaning ‘Thanks be to God’. It is pronounced /niːʃiːmŋé/.
Fun fact: There is another Lydia Nishimwe, who is a singer. Though we share quite a few similarities, we are not related. Feel free to check out her YouTube.
