About

He is currently a lecturer at Can Tho University. Before that, he was a lecturer at Soc Trang Community College in Vietnam and a member of the Engineering and Technology Faculty from October 2011 to October 2022.

From 2019 to 2022, he was a Ph.D. student at the CRIL laboratory, Artois University, and conducted the thesis entitled "On Merging of Open-Domain Ontologies" under the supervision of Professor Sébastien Konieczny, Associate Professor Ivan Varzinczak, and Associate Professor Zied Bouraoui.

His research interests mainly focus on machine learning, data mining, and high-performance computing in computer vision, particularly video/image classification through state-of-the-art algorithms and deep learning methods. His concentration currently concerns Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, Description logic, and flexible methods for reasoning with ontologies. Recently, his research topic has been directed to Belief Merging, Qualitative Spatial Calculus, Natural Language Processing, Human Estimation Pose, and real applications using Machine Learning (Deep Learning) for practical problems.
