Seongsoon Kim, Ph.D.

I am a Senior Research Engineer currently working at KISTI, Division of Science and Technology Digital Convergence, Department of Data-centric Problem Solving Research. I obtained my Ph.D. at Korea University under the guidance of Prof. Jaewoo Kang. My research has been primarily focused on discovering knowledge from big data and developing intelligent systems using artificial intelligence and machine learning-based approaches.
