Personal Information

Greetings, I am pursuing my integrated Ms-Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering at KAIST in 2018-2024, under the guidance of Professor Chang D. Yoo. My interested topics relate to computer vision, deep learning, generative AI, and image/video/audio processing: Self-supervised Learning, Generative Models, Diffusion Models, Multimodal Learning, Speech Processing, and Natural Language Processing.

In the past, I graduated in 2014 from Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST), Viet Nam, with the School of Electronics and Telecommunications rank 10/526 students (top 1.9%). After that, I worked for VNPT Technology corporation in Hanoi for 3 years until 2018, mainly doing research and deploying 2G, 3G & 4G mobile communication network projects with various vendors such as Alcatel-Lucent, Nokia Siemens, and SAMSUNG.
