Me!

I am a final year Ph.D. student in MLAI Lab, advised by Professor Sung Ju Hwang at KAIST.
My primary research interests lie in the development of robust representations across a variety of domains and tasks, including image classification, language generation, and neural architecture search. Recently, I am interested in how to learn robust representation in the multi-modality and in the foundation models. If you're interested in collaborating on research projects related to robust representation, feel free to contact me :) This is my CV!
