Hyunwoo Kang

I'm a M.S. student in ALIN-LAB@KAIST, advised by Prof. Jinwoo Shin. Before my M.S., I received a B.S. in Computer Science and Physics (minor) at KAIST.

My research goal is to build generalizable, interpretable, and sample-efficient deep learning systems via using structured rules or human inductive biases. Specifically, I have been focused on robust representation learning. I also have an interest in the neuro-symbolic approach for deep learning.
