PhD Student in Natural Language Processing
I am a PhD student in the Computing & Mathematical Sciences Division, advised by Professor Timothy Baldwin and Dr. Yova Kementchedjhieva.
I am also a visiting scholar working with Professor Anji Liu on uncertainty quantification and hallucination detection in vision-language models.
Background. I completed my Computer Science degree at HCMUT-VNU in an accelerated 3.5 years. Under the guidance of Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tho T. Quan, I built foundations in machine learning, deep learning, and multimodal analysis, with programming experience in Python, C++, and Java.
Research interests. Vision-language models, uncertainty quantification, hallucination detection, and multimodal learning.
A running log of research updates and recent milestones.
Team HalluciNauts at SHROOM-Visions: Anchor-Preserving Dual-Resolution Grounding for Fine-Grained Vision Hallucination Detection was conditionally accepted to SHROOM-Visions at the Uncertainty in NLP workshop, co-located with EMNLP 2026. Proceedings or arXiv link coming soon.
Served as a reviewer and Program Committee member for the 15th International Conference on Computational Science and Network Intelligence (CSoNet 2026).
Started working at the National University of Singapore (NUS) with Professor Anji Liu on uncertainty quantification and hallucination detection in vision-language models.
Working under the guidance of Professor Timothy Baldwin and Dr. Yova Kementchedjhieva, focusing on uncertainty in multimodal learning and vision-language models.
