I am a third-year PhD student at the Kim Jaechul Graduate School of AI, KAIST, where I am fortunate to be advised by Se-Young Yun (OSI Lab) and Chulhee “Charlie” Yun (OptiML Lab). For the summer of 2025 (May ~ Aug), I am a Research Scientist Intern at Adobe Research, San Jose, working with Branislav “Brano” Kveton, Ryan A. Rossi, and Anup Rao.
My research focuses primarily on interactive machine learning and statistical analyses of large networks, with an emphasis on community detection. More broadly, my interests encompass all aspects of mathematical and theoretical AI, as well as related problems in mathematics. Recently, I’ve been looking into problems related to LLM alignments, such as RLHF and preference learning.
I enjoy organizing seminars and workshops to foster Korea’s theoretical AI community; see ‘Organizer’. Outside of research, I am an avid violinist and have performed as a first violinist with the KAIST Orchestra (KAO), KAO-S, PROJECT Starlight, PASSIONATE Orchestra, and MDOP Orchestra.
Feel free to reach out if you’d like to collaborate on any of my research topics or just to connect! (Third-person bio here.)
