Trong Thang Pham

My name is Trong Thang Pham. I got my bachelor's degree in Computer Science at University of Science, VNU-HCM, Vietnam. Currently, I'm a PhD student at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville under the supervision of Dr. Ngan Le. I used to work as a R&D researcher at AIOZ Singapore. I have published in top conferences, i.e. CVPR, ICCV, ACM MM, WACV, and ICRA and journals, i.e. Image and Vision Computing and Artificial Intelligence in Medicine.

Research Interests

I am interested in human behavior in professional settings. How do professionals behave during high-stake decision tasks? What cognitive goals drive their behavioral patterns? My work combines computer vision, interpretable AI, and deep learning to develop new models to capture and mimic human behavior in workplace environments.
