I’m an AI Researcher at Klleon.

Data-centric approaches leading to ML systems can solve valuable real-world problems. I value building efficient systems through agile trials and errors based on a clarified problem. Proactively growing, challenging, and sharing are my core values and attitude toward my life. My recent projects are as follows:

  • Virtual Human Dialogue System
  • Diffusion Model
  • Finetuning
  • Vector Quantization
