About Me
I am an Informatics Ph. D. student at Indiana University, specializing in Complex Networks and Systems. My research interest lies at the intersection of infrastructure, mobility, and accessibility of amenities in cities. By leveraging network science and simple models from statistical physics, I seek to unravel the complex dynamics at play within these areas. This curiosity extends to various topics related to network science, including phase transition and dynamics on networks, graph machine learning, and geospatial network analysis.
Currently, I am actively collaborating with Prof. Filippo Radicchi on network optimization problems, especially focusing on infrastructure networks, e.g., airline networks. I am also working on a project which aims to capture the latent structure of human mobility and urban accessibility via neural embedding with Prof. Yong-Yeol Ahn and Prof. Esteban Moro. Before joining IU, I worked on phase transition on complex networks with Prof. Soon-Hyung Yook at Kyung Hee University.
