Short Bio

• I am a Professor at Konkuk University, Seoul, Korea. I received my BS, MS, and PhD degrees all in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at KAIST. I was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at MIT from 2007 to 2011, a Visiting Professor at LIDS, MIT from 2017 to 2018, and a Research Assistant Professor at KAIST during 2011 and 2012. More details can be found in my cv [pdf]

Research

• I am generally interested in analyzing and optimizing networked systems, by applying tools from optimization, probability and queueing theory, and machine learning.

• My recent research is focused on networked inference, multimodal AI, and robustness of DNN models. Click here for more details.
