Short Biography
I'm a principal researcher of Korea Atomic Energy Research Insitute(KAERI). Before joining KAERI, I worked for the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Institute of Technology as a research scientist II, and was a principal research engineer at Samsung Heavy Industry. I earned my Ph.D. from Stanford University. My Ph.D. thesis work was about the stochastic nonlinear optimal control and estimation, applied to the monocular SLAM-based navigation and control. My research interests are in robotics, including task/motion planning, language-based human-robot interaction, teleoperation, controls, estimation, and physics simulation.
