Hi, I'm Khuong Tran or Donald Tran

My major is Computer Science with focus in Machine Learning. I just love to build deep learning models that can help solve business problem and improve society in general.

June - Nov 2024
Machine Learning Engineer at AhaMove

I got another internship after I graduate. This time it's a role related to machine learning, tasks that I always dream to do.

Here are some of my tasks:

  • Researched and developed latest deep learning models for NLP and computer vision tasks
  • Deployed models on AWS platforms, maintained and monitored models availability and reliability
  • Fine-tuned pre-trained model from Hugging Face, improved performance by 20%
  • Performed large scale data analysis and visualization
    • April 2023 - June 2024
    Back to university and graduate from Bsc in Computer Science at UOIT

    This is my first internship. I worked under supervision of Dr Piotr Roztocki, we collaborated with Quantum Bridge to develop an open-source Python library called GraphiQ for quantum computing and a research paper.

    Here are some of my tasks:

  • Architected a pipeline for large-scale data processing and analysis using Python
  • Led the design and development of a visualization module for intereactive circuits rendering
  • Optimized code by refactoring over 4000+ lines of code, improved performance by 40%
  • Implemented CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions, ensure seamless development and deployment
  • Wrote unit tests for quality assurance using Pytest, maintained test coverage to 98%
    • September 2021 - April 2022

    After complete my college diploma, I continued my study in Computer Science at UOIT

    In 2022, I achieved 2nd place at CANDEV Hackathon, detail here.

    September 2018 - April 2021
    Seneca College

    Advanced Diploma in Computer Programming at Seneca College, I studied the basics of computer programming here. Also I won the Seneca College Hackathon 2021, detail here.

    Projects

    GPT from scratch for six-eight poem
    In this project, I built a GPT model from scratch using Pytorch to generate six-eight style poem (a type of poetry in Vietnam). All components like single-head attention, multi-head attention, and feed forward are implemented from scratch.
    Financial news data pipeline
    This is a data pipeline that I built to collect news data from multiple sources using web scraping techniques. The data is then stored in a database and can be later used for analysis and machine learning tasks.

    Deep Learning Concepts

    These are some of the deep learning famous models, architectures, and algorithms that I re-implemented from scratch from multiple research papers. Often when I learn new deep learning knowledge, I try to replicate it to understand how it works from the smallest detail.

    Not implemented yet

    Publications

    I need to improve on this one, so far I only have one paper from my internship at Ki3. Hope that I will publish more stuffs.
