About Me

👋 Hi! My principal research interest is at the intersection of Foundation Models and Agentic Behaviour. [P1] I have recently worked on efficient and effective self-taught reasoning training. My past works make [C1] multi-agents more generalizable and significantly more reliable; and [W1] improves agents in noisy environments. I have also made an [C2] agentic framework for scalable LM-based chart generation (code and image), with robust improvements across 27B, 70B, and frontier-level LMs.

My current research topic revolves around: (1) LM pretraining, (2) LM reasoning, and (3) LM evaluation. Nevertheless, I am interested in a wide-range of open problems.

In the past, I worked on [J1] personalization and user-centric machine learning; and [W2] improving time-series representation learning under non-stationarity.

I am perfectly bilingual in English and Korean. I love to chat about research and downstream impact; feel free to reach out via email 📧.
