Researching vision-language models and NLP at Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI). I am currently a visiting scholar at the National University of Singapore (NUS), working with Professor Anji Liu on uncertainty quantification and hallucination detection in vision-language models, while also exploring diffusion-based vision-language models.
I graduated in Computer Science from Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology - Vietnam National University (HCMUT-VNU) in an accelerated 3.5 years, and I am now pursuing a PhD in Computing & Mathematical Sciences Division, specializing in NLP at MBZUAI. Throughout my undergraduate journey under the guidance of Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tho T. Quan, I built strong foundations in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and Multimodal Analysis, with programming experience in Python, C++, and Java.
My current interests focus on vision-language models, uncertainty quantification, hallucination detection, diffusion-based vision-language models, and multimodal learning.
A running log of papers, places, and proof that I occasionally leave my desk.
