Professor

Biography

I am currently an associate professor of the Graduate School of AI & Department of Electrical Engineering at Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) since Mar. 2020.  I received my Ph.D. from the School of Electrical Engineering at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), in Aug. 2017, under supervision by Prof. Jaekyun Moon. Before joining UNIST, I was a postdoctoral researcher at KAIST from Sep. 2017 to Mar. 2020. My research interests are in machine learning with a special focus on i) learning theory to truly reveal the secret of the success of deep training via a lens of information theory and signal processing, and ii) deep algorithmic methods to bolster the generalization of learners across diverse settings. For another direction, I am dedicated to developing intelligent communication systems beyond Shannon's theory.
