About Me

From October 2021, I have studied my Ph.D. in the Department of Computer Science, University of Warwick, supervised by Dr. Long Tran-Thanh. Before joining Warwick, I studied my undergraduate degree in Automatic Control at the Hanoi University of Science and Technology, and worked as an R&D engineer at an aerospace institute in Vietnam after that.

Research

My current research interest is statistical perspective of online Decision Making, especial bandit and reinforcement learning problems. Particularly, I am interested in how geometric structures, especially symmetries, of decision-making problems can be exploited to design faster learning algorithms.
