Trinh, Hoang

(Vietnamese name: Trịnh Nguyên Hoàng)

PhD in Computer Science

 

About me: I am currently a lead applied researcher at Ebay Inc, applying machine learning, data science and AI to bringing better e-comerce experience to customers. Prior to that, I was data science team lead and senior data scientist at Misfit, focusing on gaining insights into users' activeness and healthiness, from multi-sensor data as well as their derived data, using signal processing, machine learning, statistics and data analysis techniques. I had previously been with UtopiaCompression, and IBM Research T. J. Watson, building multiple real-world machine learning and computer vision systems.

My PhD thesis, under the supervision of Prof. David McAllester, introduced a general machine learning approach called Unsupervised CRF learning based on maximizing the conditional likelihood, with application to computer vision systems that recover the 3-D scene geometry from images.

Research interests: Machine learning, Data science, AI, Computer Vision, NLP, and Robotics
