Introduction

About Me

Greetings! My name is Hoàng-Ân Lê. I am from Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam.

I obtained the PhD degree in Computer Science in 2021 from the Computer Vision lab, University of Amsterdam under the supervision of Prof. Theo Gevers and Dr. Thomas Mensink. The doctoral study was fully funded by the EUHorizon 2020 program within the TrimBot2020 project. My doctoral thesis is titled Outdoor Image Understanding from Multiple Vision Modalities.

I have been a regular reviewer for several high-ranking conferences and journals, including CVPR (IEEE/CVF), BMVC (BMVA), WACV (IEEE/CVF), ACCV (AFCV), JSTARS (IEEE)

My CV can be found here , last updated in May 2021.
