I am a PhD student in Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Edinburgh (UK), affiliated with the School of Mathematics. My research focuses on high-dimensional Bayesian Machine Learning methodologies. I am fortunate to be supervised by Dr. Torben Sell and Dr. Cecilia Balocchi.

My work spans both the applied and theoretical sides of Bayesian Machine learning. For applications, I am developing a Bayesian clustering method for satellite image segmentation. From theoretical side, I mainly work on Bayesian Deep Learning, focusing on the theoretical understanding of posterior concentration rates under simple priors (e.g., Gaussian priors), while maintaining computational efficiency.

Before my doctoral studies, I obtained my Master’s degree from Queen Mary University of London (UK) and the Bachelor’s degree from Hanoi National University of Education (Vietnam), both in Mathematics.
