Cuong Nguyen
I am a Research Fellow at the Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing, University of Surrey, working on human-AI cooperation in Professor Carneiro’s group.
Before that, I was a Research Associate at the School of Computer Science, The University of Adelaide from April 2022 to January 2024. I received my PhD in Computer Science from The University of Adelaide in March 2022, an MPhil in Electronic Engineering also from The University of Adelaide in January 2018, and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Portland State University in June 2012.
Areas of study
My main research interest include probabilistic machine learning, graphical models and statistical learning theory.
