I’ll be in Stockholm for the next two weeks (07.02 - 07.14). For the first week (07.02 - 07.05), I’ll be attending the Stochastic Networks 2024. Also, as part of the Learning in Networks - Structure, Dynamics, and Control, I’ll be giving a talk about my AISTATS 2023 paper (Nearly Optimal Latent State Decoding in Block MDPs) on 07.

I have successfully organized the 1st Korean AI Theory Community Workshop (Bandits). Refer to the website for more details. A total of 33 Korean researchers working on bandits attended, including 6 speakers.

One paper (Gradient Descent with Polyak’s Momentum Finds Flatter Minima via Large Catapults) is accepted to ICML 2024 Workshop: 2nd Workshop on High-dimensional Learning Dynamics (HiLD): The Emergence of Structure and Reasoning.

I will be serving as a reviewer for AAAI 2025.

I will be serving as a reviewer for ICML 2024 ARLET Workshop. First time reviewing for a workshop, and I hope to be of a good service to the RL (theory) community!

I will be serving as a reviewer for NeurIPS 2024.

After AISTATS 2024, I’ll be at Universitat Pompeu Fabra to give a talk at a mini-workshop on RL theory, hosted by Prof. Gergely Neu. I’ll be presenting my AISTATS 2024 paper (Improved Regret Bounds of (Multinomial) Logistic Bandits via Regret-to-Confidence-Set Conversion).

From 06.03 to 06.07, I will be attending the “Summer School on Optimal Transport, Stochastic Analysis and Applications to Machine Learning”! On Thursday (06.06), I will be presenting my paper (Nearly Optimal Latent State Decoding in Block MDPs) at a lightning session.

One paper (Improved Regret Bounds of (Multinomial) Logistic Bandits via Regret-to-Confidence-Set Conversion) is accepted to AISTATS 2024! This is joint work with my advisor Se-Young Yun (KAIST AI) and Kwang-Sung Jun (Univ.

One paper (Querying Easily Flip-flopped Samples for Deep Active Learning) is accepted to ICLR 2024! This is joint work with Seong Jin Cho (who led the entire project and did all the experiments!
