Hi, welcome to my homepage. I come from Ho Chi
Minh City, Vietnam. My name in Vietnamese is Huỳnh Ngọc Tuyên. I did my PhD at the Department of
Computer Science, The University of Texas at Austin under the
supervision of Prof.
Raymond J. Mooney. In June 2011, I join SRI International as
a computer scientist.

Research interests
My current research is on improving the accuracy and
scalability of discriminative learning methods for Markov Logic
Networks. Besides, I am also interested in Bayesian Statistics,
Optimization, Computer
Vision, Computational Linguistics, and Bioinformatics.
