Hi, thank you for visiting my profile. I received my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Ajou University, South Korea, and my M.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Central Florida under the guidance of Prof. Mohamed Abdel-Aty . I am currently working as a full-time researcher at the KCIR Research Center before starting my Ph.D. program.
With core abilities in deep learning and computer vision, I have developed cutting-edge frameworks for real-world applications including intelligent transportation systems and autonomous vehicles.
