PI

I am an Assistant Professor at Graduate School of Advanced Imaging Science, Multimedia & Films (GSAIM), Chung-Ang University, where I am leading Immersive Reality & Intelligent Systems Lab (IRIS LAB).

Before joining Chung-Ang University, I was a postdoctoral researcher in School of Computer and Communication Sciences (IC), a visiting postdoctoral researcher in Electrical Engineering at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland, and a postdoctoral researcher in School of Electrical Engineering at KAIST, Daejeon, Korea. I received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in School of Electronic Engineering at Inha University, Incheon, Korea, in 2012 and 2014, respectively. I received the Ph.D. degree in School of Electrical Engineering at KAIST, Daejeon, Korea, in 2019.

My research interests include 3D/AR/VR/Metaverse Image and Video Processing, Human Visual Perception, Computer Vision, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, particularly Convergence of AI & Reality, eXplainable AI (XAI), and the vulnerability of deep neural network.
