35 years of optical remote sensing in Geography: from Spitsbergen to Vietnam, from melting glaciers to vector-borne diseases, from Small to Big Data... what a story! by Professor Dominique Laffly at the University of Toulouse.
Despite some empirical successes, natural language processing (NLP) technology remains limited when it comes to practical applications, due to a lack of reliability and robustness, and very high memory and computational footprints. We plan to develop a strong research activity at VinUni centered around NLP, with a focus on three thrusts: a) low-resource and robust […]
Abstract: Sharing-service business models face their own unique operational issues. The human aspect of the operation is particularly different from traditional service business models, and therefore requires special attention. One in that aspect is “increased role of customers in service production/delivery process” in sharing-service models. The primary goal of this study is to identify such […]
Research Abstract: Transgender (trans) women are at higher risk of sexual violence than cisgender women. Transwomen of colour face discrimination and violence on the basis of the intersection of their gender and racial identities, and for some, their sexual identities as queer women. However, there is an absence of Australian research investigating the experiences of […]
Most of us have probably had the experience of using translation software and receiving the wrong message. Why does this happen? And how do these language technologies work? In this seminar, we will discuss the science behind computational linguistics systems and their areas for improvement in the future. About the Speaker: Dr. Bui Thanh Tuong […]
Abstract: In this talk, the speaker will present several biomedical image processing applications which can leverage the power of Deep Learning/Machine Learning to perform such tasks on image-to-image translation. For example, reconstruction, segmentation, and denoising. Additional tips and tricks in model and loss engineering will be also introduced. Furthermore, the data-centric augmentation to enrich the […]
Abstract: Conventional narratives of Vietnamese history depict a culture steeped in a millennia-old struggle against foreign aggression. This is understandable given Vietnam’s recent encounters with France, the United States, and China. But a closer examination of this history reveals insights, both complex and illuminating, into the way Vietnamese have long defined leadership, learning, and success. […]

(Deepak Chopra, 21st century) Maintaining and sustaining […]
Abstract: Optimization, also known as Mathematical Programming, or Operations Research, is a field that aims to model with mathematics, and solve with computers, practical decision problems arising in engineering and business. The field is at the foundation of most modern artificial intelligence technology, with use cases in natural language processing and computer vision, machine learning, data […]
Abstract: Half of the world’s languages are endangered and may go extinct in this century. The loss of these languages will have dire consequences not only for their speakers, but also for culture, science, and the environment. Around the world, speakers of endangered languages are mounting strategic efforts to save their languages. This presentation features photos […]
