From the Mekong to the Danube.
From uncertain data to reliable knowledge.
I'm Dang Nguyen Le. This is my journey.

Big questions.
Grounded in
real data.

I study how to find meaningful patterns when data is uncertain, incomplete, or easy to misread.

I'm a researcher at the Faculty of Information Technology, Ton Duc Thang University, Vietnam. My work connects exact pattern-mining algorithms with machine learning that can hold up in real educational settings.

I graduated first in my Computer Science cohort in April 2026. A semester in Germany, years of teaching English, and independent travel have been part of that education, too.

Into the
uncertain.

Three connected directions.
One concern: results we can trust.

01

Mining uncertain data

+

Which patterns are frequent when transactions themselves are uncertain? TUFCI uses a best-first search to find the top-k closed frequent itemsets.

02

Profit, loss & exact search

+

For uncertain data with positive and negative utilities, a standard pruning bound can fail. My thesis derived two correct bounds, an exact algorithm (PTK-HUIM), and a heuristic (UTKU-PSO).

Learning without leakage

+

A model cannot help a school intervene if it needs information that has not arrived yet. Working with an anonymised 675-student Mathematics cohort, I designed IC-FS to select only features available at prediction time.

Across languages

Vietnamese, English, German and Chinese. Learning a language is another way of learning how someone else sees the world.

Across classrooms

Teaching English at MAC English centre since 2023, from primary to upper-secondary learners. The classes continued online during my exchange in Germany.

Across borders

Five north–south journeys across Vietnam since 2019. Solo trips in Germany, France, Austria and Taiwan. There is always another perspective to find.
