SHORT BIOGRAPHY
I graduated from the Hanoi University of Technology (HUT, Vietnam) in 2000. From 2000 to 2002, I followed the Master program at the Francophone Institute for Computer Science (IFI-Hanoi, Vietnam). In this period, I was also teaching assistant at the Department of Data Communication & Computer Network, Faculty of Information Technology, (HUT, Vietnam). Since June 2002, I have started my work on the domain of Information Extraction and Distributed Information Retrieval at Artificial Intelligence Laboratory of the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL). I obtained the PhD degree in December, 2007.
