Biography
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Artificial Intelligence at Yonsei University. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Pohang University of Science and Technology, where I was advised by Prof. Hwanjo Yu. After completing my Ph.D., I worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with my advisor, Prof. Jiawei Han.
My research interest lies in applied machine learning, which aims to develop practical ML solutions for real-world applications. I have covered a wide range of data types (e.g., matrix/tensor, text, graph, time series), tasks (e.g., classification, outcome prediction, anomaly detection, retrieval, data generation), and domains (e.g., healthcare, manufacturing, recommender systems).
Research Interest
- Knowledge discovery from massive real-world data
- Text mining and NLP applications
- Deep learning approaches to real-world applications
