About Me
Hi! I am a 5th year PhD student at the SNU Computer Vision Lab, advised by Prof. Bohyung Han. I am interested in designing cutting-edge deep neural networks for video understanding, aiming to capture object, scene, and temporal dynamics at the level of human perception. To this end, my research focuses on: Video Understanding, Action Recognition, Object Tracking, Multimodal Learning, and (Large) Vision-Language Models.
In addition to my research, I am also passionate about promoting diversity and accessibility in AI. I envision the world where technology is accessible to all, including individuals with disabilities and those from underrepresented racial and gender groups.
Here is my CV for more info!
