Summary I completed my Ph.D. at Korea University's Vision & AI Lab, advised by Prof. Jungbeom Lee and Prof. Jinkyu Kim, and currently work as an AI planning researcher in KakaoMobility's Autonomous Driving Development Team. My research focuses on autonomous driving and robotics across perception, prediction, and planning. I have led first-author projects on multi-camera 3D object detection, streaming 3D occupancy prediction, VLM-guided trajectory prediction, and end-to-end planning. My current interests include reliable closed-loop planning and Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models that connect perception, reasoning, and decision-making.
