Before being a good academic or researcher, you must be a good human first

@EddieNg30250193 Hi Eddie, it's from July 23 to August 1, 2025 in HCM city. More details to come.

[Minh-Ngoc Tran @ngocmath1]

The 2nd Summer School on Mathematical Stat and ML (https://t.co/eCkxunJwZL) was a huge success. This is part of our mission to help Vietnam become a regional hub in Statistics and Data Science. Looking forward to the 2025 edition. Let me know if you want to get involved

[Minh-Ngoc Tran @ngocmath1]

@thanhnguyentang Yes, it's so sad. I keep watching the news these days and my thoughts are all with those affected

The typhoon is destroying my beautiful hometown. My heart is broken

[Minh-Ngoc Tran @ngocmath1]

@TresBienHien Thank you, Hien, for your kind words - it means a lot. My family is safe, but many others are facing difficulties.

@fasc1nate “heros”? they came to kill millions of innocent Vietnamese people

Natural gradient works efficiently in learning (Amari, 1998), but computing it remains a challenging problem.
Our new work https://t.co/oIrMpENAsx completely addresses this challenge.

Australia should be ashamed when it voted down the Indigenous Voice to parliament

Christian Robert is giving his lecture on Bayesian computation, within a 2-week Summer School on Bayesian Statistics in Ho Chi Minh city

@wv2017 @ARCDARECentre thank you, @wv2017 and @ARCDARECentre

My paper https://t.co/b8QFu3JWuA (with P. Tseng and @robertjk59) proposes a particle-based approach that relaxes the conjugate priors requirement in MFVB. The theoretical basis is established by leveraging the connection between Wasserstein gradient flows and Langevin diffusions.

[Minh-Ngoc Tran @ngocmath1]

Normality of the summary statistics has been a strict assumption in synthetic likelihood. Our paper https://t.co/HLJnizQLPv fulfills this requirement by using OT to construct a Gaussianization transformation. Joint work with PhD student N. Nguyen, @chris_drovandi and D. Nott
