About Me

I am a senior researcher at the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) and an associate professor at the University of Science and Technology (UST). I received my bachelor's degree in computer science and engineering from Chung-Ang university in Seoul, South Korea. I obtained both my master's degree in robotics and ph.d. in computer science from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) in Daejeon, South Korea. My research interests include computer vision, robot learning, and machine learning.

I am currently directing the Learning in Vision and Robotics (LVR) Lab, jointly affiliated with UST and ETRI, dedicated to advancing understanding and movement in intelligent systems through cutting-edge research. More details can be found at the LVR Lab.
