I am an Assistant Professor and Director of the Laboratory of Advanced Imaging Technology (LAIT) in Graduate School of Artificial Intelligence at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST). I am also an affiliated professor in Electrical Engineering Department

My main research area lies at the intersection of computer vision, signal processing, and machine learning. I have a strong interest in generative models, representation learning, and the use of signal processing theories for solving various inverse problems from low-level computer vision (e.g., natural image recovery) to medical imaging tasks (e.g., image reconstruction of CT, MRI, Microscopy, etc.). I also enjoy making small puns ("LAIT"?).

Prior to joining UNIST, from 2019 to 2021, I was a postdoctoral researcher with Michael Unser at Biomedical Imaging Group, EPFL, Switzerland. From 2018 to 2019, I spent two years as an AI research scientist at NAVER Clova AI, where I mainly worked with Yunjey Choi, Youngjung Uh, Seong Joon Oh, Sanghyuk Chun, Sangdoo Yun, Dongyoon Han, Youngjoon Yoo, and Jung-Woo Ha.  I received my B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees from KAIST under the supervision of Jong Chul Ye.
