I am a Ph.D. student in Electrical Engineering at KAIST, advised by Prof. Changick Kim.

My research interests include representation learning, self-supervised vision models (e.g., DINO), world models, and high-resolution weather forecasting . I particularly enjoy short-term performance tuning challenges , where rapid iteration and optimization are critical.

I am a multi-time challenge winner , including:
๐Ÿฅ‡ CVPR 2022 BMTT Challenge โ€“ Winner
๐Ÿฅ‡ NeurIPS VisDA 2022 Challenge โ€“ Winner
๐Ÿฅ‡ NeurIPS Weather4Cast 2022 Challenge โ€“ Winner
๐Ÿฅ‡ ICCV GeoNet 2023 Challenge โ€“ Winner
