I'm working at LG AI Research, developing AI models that predict and generate unseen future states. I'm proficient in working with sequential data from artistic to industrial fields (music generation, bio-signal processing, battery, time-series anomaly detection/forecasting, causal discovery). I'm a project leader of Discrete Sequence Generation Squad, focusing on music generation. (Last updated: Mar 2024)
