Welcome to my homepage! I am Seunghyun, you can see the pronunciation of my name here. I also go by Sky. Here is a copy of my CV.

I am a 5th year PhD student in the Department of Statistics at Columbia University, co-advised by Profs. Sumit Mukherjee and Yuqi Gu. Before coming to Columbia, I received my undergraduate degree in Statistics and Mathematics from Seoul National University in 2021.

I am interested in statistical inference in parametric models with intractable likelihoods. Below are more details:

• Statistics: Graphical models; High-dimensional statistics; Variational inference; Bayes and Empirical Bayes

• Applied probability: Ising models

• Psychometrics and machine learning: Mixture models; Cognitive diagnostic models; Unsupervised learning

In my spare time, I enjoy table tennis, board games, swimming, and watching baseball. I am a wine lover, and I have the WSET level 3 award in wines. I have a pet dog (she is also named Sky) back in Korea.
