I am a senior undergraduate student at GIST with a deep fascination for AGI, LLM reasoning, LLM alignment, and test-time scaling. My research focuses on understanding how intelligent systems can improve their reasoning capabilities through interaction and adaptation.
Currently, I am conducting research on LLM with reinforcement learning at the Data Science Laboratory under Professor Sundong Kim's supervision, working towards achieving artificial general intelligence.
Through the Korea-Germany Junior Research Fellowship, I had the opportunity to work as a visiting researcher at Forschungszentrum Jülich's INM-7 institute directed by Professor Simon B. Eickhoff, where I investigated the intersection of neuroscience and machine learning through brain connectivity analysis.
