Independent researcher & software engineer

Learning systems.
Real-world questions.

I'm Huy, a researcher and engineer in Hanoi, Vietnam. My work explores how learning agents cooperate, adapt to context, and make better decisions in complex environments.

A question from my research

What changes when an
ambulance needs to pass?

Conceptual traffic signal network Four intersections with cooperating traffic signals. Toggle the scenario to highlight a conceptual priority route. Agent AAgent BAgent CAgent D

Intersection agents coordinate to manage regular traffic.

Conceptual illustration, not a simulation or experimental result.

Selected research

Cooperation, context,
and better traffic control.

My research connects multi-agent reinforcement learning with context-aware decisions in urban transportation.

2026Journal article

International Journal of Intelligent Transportation Systems Research

A Dual-Mode Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning Method for Context-Aware Traffic Control Optimization

Nhat Quang Doan, Nhat Huy Ly, Anh Tuan Giang, Hoang Ha Nguyen

Dual-policy traffic signal control that responds to ordinary traffic and emergency vehicles. I contributed to methodology, development, and simulation.

Research contribution

The DM-MADDPG project builds on my earlier MOP-MADDPG work, using separate reward and policy structures for context-dependent traffic control. The journal's contribution statement credits me with research and methodology, simulation, and development.

About

From research
to working systems.

I combine experimental research with hands-on software engineering: turning a question into an algorithm, testing it in simulation, and building the systems around it.

I currently conduct research independently. USTH is my alma mater and a past research setting, not a current institutional appointment.
