Logo Research Associate @ UKP Lab

I am currently a research associate at the UKP Lab, TU Darmstadt, under the supervision of Prof. Iryna Gurevych. My research focuses on language models and interpretability. I aim to contribute to the development of more transparent and efficient AI systems.

I completed my MSc in Natural Language Processing at MBZUAI, where I was advised by Dr. Yova Kementchedjhieva and Prof. Kentaro Inui. My thesis explored how large language models can reuse previous computations to speed up text generation without losing accuracy.

During my undergraduate studies, I conducted research under Dr. Kiet Nguyen and Prof. Ngan Nguyen at UIT NLP Group. My work focused on hate speech detection and Vietnamese NLP.

I've published in venues like EACL, NAACL, SemEval, and Neural Computing & Applications.

Besides, I am also a
