CV | Google Scholar | Github

I am an Assistant Professor at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Seoul, Korea. I am currently the principal investigator of the Computer Vision Laboratory (CVLAB).

Previously, I was a Staff Researcher at Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT). I was a research intern at Adobe Research (San Jose, CA) in 2021. During my internship, I worked at the Creative Intelligence Lab with Joon-Young Lee, Seoung Wug Oh, and Brian Price as my mentors. I received my Ph.D. and B.S. degrees in the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Yonsei University in 2023 and 2018, respectively, advised by Professor Euntai Kim.
