Ph.D. candidate in Electronic Engineering
Sogang University, Seoul, South Korea

I'm a Ph.D. candidate at Sogang University, advised by Prof. Suk-Ju Kang. I work on efficient AI for computer vision: making large vision models smaller and faster to run while keeping their accuracy.

My recent work focuses on post-training quantization (PTQ) for vision transformers (ViTs) and monocular depth estimation (MDE), and on KV cache compression and sparse attention for visual autoregressive (VAR) and video models. I also collaborate with Samsung Electronics and Samsung Display on model compression, energy-efficient hardware acceleration, and image restoration.
