Background

Viet Huynh is a lecturer specializing in machine learning and AI. Before his tenure at ECU, he served as an associate research fellow at the PRaDA (now A2I2) centre at Deakin University and as a research fellow on the Machine Learning team at Monash University. His Ph.D., obtained from Deakin University under the guidance of Professor Dinh Phung and Professor Svetha Venkatesh, focused on scaling up learning algorithms for probabilistic graphical models. Viet boasts an impressive publication record with over 30 papers presented in top-notch conferences and esteemed journals in machine learning and artificial intelligence (ML/AI), including NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and JMLR. He has consistently contributed as a reviewer for major ML/AI conferences such as NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, and AMML. His research interests span large-scale learning algorithms for probabilistic graphical models, the application of deep generative models for learning with probabilistic graphical models, Bayesian optimization, and causal machine learning. Additionally, he is dedicated to applying machine learning/AI methodologies to directly impact various domains, including healthcare, computational biology, cybersecurity, and manufacturing optimization.
