====== Research Group ======

Dr. Quan Thanh Tho is currently leading a research group so-called URA (Unlimited Research group on AI), which aims at theorerical research and applications of AI. Our group includes some experienced researchers and numerous overseas consultants and collaborators in [[http://www.univ-paris13.fr/|Paris 13]] ,[[http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/|NUS]] (Singapore),[[http://www.ntu.edu.sg/|NTU]] (Singapore), [[http://www.epfl.ch/index.en.html|EPFL]] (Switzerland), [[http://www.labri.fr/|Labri ]] (France),[[http://www.jaist.ac.jp/|JAIST ]] (Japan). 

We also collaborate with some industry partners including [[https://www.bosch.com.vn/|Bosch]], [[http://www.logigear.vn/|LoGiGear]], [[http://www.elarion.com/|LARION Computing]], [[http://ftri.fpt.edu.vn/|FPT Technology Research Institute]], [[http://www.younetco.com/|YouNet]],  [[https://dena.com/intl/company/overview/|DeNA]], [[https://digi-texx.vn//|Digi Texx]], [[http://www.cyberlogitec.com.vn/|Cyber Logitec]], [[http://rever.com.vn/|Rever]], [[https://truongminhthinh.com/|Truong Minh Thinh]],[[https://www.kms-technology.com/|KMS Technology]] and [[http://vietnamblockchain.asia/|Vietnam Blockchain Corporation]].


Some research tools developed from our group:
