Research

We think critically and creatively.

The group's research interests in AI & machine learning include

  • iterative AI: diffusion models & iterative neural networks,

  • contrastive representation learning,

  • self/un-supervised learning, and 

  • multi-modal analysis (e.g., vision-language models),

with current projects in multi-dimensional computational imaging & vision:

  • 4D light-field reconstruction,

  • 3D view synthesis & 3D reconstruction,

  • video prediction, understanding, & analysis,

  • multi-modal autonomous driving & parking, and

  • medical image reconstruction & analysis (e.g., X-ray CT, MRI, PET, lung cancer diagnosis/prognosis prediction, nodule segmentation).

We are interested both in developing state-of-the-art AI & data science solutions for these problems, as well as improving fundamental understanding of these solutions. 

Principal Investigator:
Il Yong Chun, Ph.D.

Il Yong Chun received the B.Eng. degree in Electrical Engineering from Korea University in 2009, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) from Purdue University in 2015.

He is an Associate Professor of ECE (previously Electronic and Electrical Engineering) at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) from 2024.
