Background

I am currently a postdoc at Johns Hopkins University (with Raman Arora). Prior to that, I did my PhD in Computer Science at The Applied AI Institute, Deakin University, Australia (Alfred Deakin Medal for Doctoral Theses). I did my M.Sc. in Computer Science at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology, South Korea. In my previous life, I studied Electronic and Communication Engineering (Talented Engineering Program) at Danang University of Science and Technology, Vietnam.

I care about: science, teaching (education, broadly), and diversity. I love mathematics but would not consider myself a mathematician; I'm more as a ML scientist.

Research Interest

My research interest is statistical learning and decision-making (theory). I am currently working on: (offline) reinforcement learning, multitask learning, multi-agent learning.
