AI Researcher

Hi, I'm Do Hoang Lam.

I study how large models learn, reason, and fail — and build methods to make them more reliable, efficient, and aligned.

About

I'm an AI researcher working at the intersection of machine learning, natural language processing, and interpretability. My work asks why modern neural networks generalize, and how we can make their behavior more predictable.

Previously, I completed my degree at FPT University, and have interned at Some Lab. Outside of research I enjoy open-source, teaching, and long hikes.

Research interests

LLM Reasoning

Chain-of-thought, planning, and test-time compute scaling.

Interpretability

Mechanistic analysis of circuits and representations in transformers.

Alignment & Safety

Robustness, evaluation, and scalable oversight of foundation models.

Efficient Learning

Data-efficient training, distillation, and sparse architectures.
