University of Melbourne](https://www.cis.unimelb.edu.au/) . I am fortunate to be advised by [Dr. Bach Le](https://xuanbachle.github.io/) and [Prof. Toby Murray](https://people.eng.unimelb.edu.au/tobym/), and supported by Melbourne Graduate Scholarship and Google PhD Fellowship. Before joining UoM, I worked as a research engineer at [SOAR (SOftware Analytic Research)](https://soarsmu.github.io/), [Singapore Management University](https://smu.edu.sg/) under the advisor of [Prof. David Lo](http://www.mysmu.edu/faculty/davidlo/).<br><br>My passion lies in leveraging AI and data mining to tackle real-world challenges in software engineering and pushing the boundaries of programming technologies. My goal to is to build trustworthy AI-powered tools for supporting developers on software engineering tasks (AI4SE), especially bug fixing and management. Particular, I’m trying to explore the following research questions:<br><br>- (1) How reliable and depandable AI4SE tools?<br>- (2) How can we improve their reliability and trustworthiness?<br>- (3) How can we improve developers’ trust on these tools?<br><br>If they are look interesting for you, let's see more about my [research](https://thanhlecongg.github.io/research.html) and [publications](https://thanhlecongg.github.io/publications.html).) | [Brice Huang, Massachusetts Institute of Technology](https://www.bricehuang.com/index.html)<br><br>Debajyoti Kar, Indian Institute of Science<br><br>Jamie Tucker-Foltz, Harvard University<br><br>Joakim Blikstad, KTH Royal Institute of Technology<br><br>Mahdieh Labani, Macquarie University<br><br>Rehema Hamis Mwawado, University of Rwanda<br><br>Uddalok Sarkar, Indian Statistical Institute Kolkata | Sreejan Kumar, Princeton University | Brianna Wimer, University of Notre Dame<br><br>Emily Kuang, Rochester Institute of Technology<br><br>[Eunkyung Jo, University of California - Irvine](https://eunkyungjo.weebly.com/)<br><br>Georgianna Lin, University of Toronto<br><br>Gustavo Pacheco Santiago, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México<br><br>Marcelo Marques da Rocha, Universidade Federal Fluminense<br><br>Yulia Goldenberg, Ben Gurion University<br><br>Zixiong Su, The University of Tokyo (I’m currently a second-year PhD student at [the University of Tokyo](https://www.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/), advised by Prof. [Jun Rekimoto](https://lab.rekimoto.org/). My research interests lie primarily in the topic of voice user interaction, silent speech recognition, and multimodal input technologies. My educational background and work experience span electrical and electronics engineering (B.S., four years at [UESTC](https://en.uestc.edu.cn/)) and applied computer science (M.S., two years at [the University of Tokyo](https://www.u-tokyo.ac.jp/en/)).

I am also closely collaborating with Dr. [Jonathan Richard Schwarz](https://jonathan-schwarz.github.io/), Prof. [Marinka Zitnik](https://zitniklab.hms.harvard.edu/bio/) at Harvard University and Prof. [Yee Whye Teh](https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~teh/) at University of Oxford. My research is primarily centered on developing efficient and robust machine learning frameworks to tackle the emerging challenges of large models. In particular, my recent research focuses on developing efficient pre-training and adaptation algorithms, mainly leveraging useful prior knowledge extracted from multiple tasks (e.g., meta-learning) combined with efficient training and inference schemes (e.g., data pruning, weight pruning, quantization, and efficient parametrization).
