Hi, I’m Thiên Trang 👋 You can call me Trang 🍒

I’m currently a PhD student in Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, where I’m fortunate to be advised by Tim Dettmers. Previously, I worked at Qualcomm and was a Research Resident at VinAI Research under the guidance of Nhat Ho.

My research focuses on advancing Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning with two main goals: making them Scalable & Efficient ⬆, and ensuring they are Safe, Private & Trustworthy 🔐

I’ve explored exciting topics such as Mixture of Experts for scaling AI models and Backdoor Attacks to address critical security challenges. Additionally, I’ve worked on Continual Learning, Optimal Transport, and Model Fusion. I’m always curious and eager to learn about new ideas and explore diverse topics!
