Core Focus Areas

Three research and engineering pillars across NLP and AI.

NLP & Corpus Engineering

Korean morphological analysis and POS tagging, multilingual NER, and automatic generation of tagged corpora using relationship scores of multiple generative units. Includes the BIT NER scheme for low-resource languages.

Generative AI & LLM

Leading research on workflow optimization with LLM prompt engineering at MetaIntelligence. Applying generative AI to R&D trend analysis and researcher discovery.

Applied AI Systems

Built the Korean short-answer automated scoring system (3 registered patents). Contributed to indoor-positioning dataset validation and sonar image object recognition, among other applied AI systems.

Values

Principles I keep in research and collaboration.

Reproducibility First

I prioritize specifying corpora, evaluation metrics, and training procedures. Only reproducible results turn into follow-up research and industrial application.

Prompt Engineering & AI Agents

Researching automated report generation and analysis with prompt engineering and AI agent workflows — turning frontier LLM capabilities into production research tools.

Bridging Research & Industry

I pursue research that ships as something tangible — registered patents, deployed analysis tools, validated systems — not papers that gather dust.
