I am M.S. student at Algorithmic Intelligence Laboratory (ALIN-LAB), advised by Jinwoo Shin at KAIST. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from KAIST in 2023. My research interests span vision language models, generative modeling, and their applications. In particular, I am interested in training and utilizing large-scale text-to-image diffusion models. Previously, I have worked on human-computer interaction, including video understanding and interaction.
