Research Interests

Motivated by challenges in interpreting user intent and multi-constraint queries in a RAG prototype, I aim to investigate how retrieval, agent memory, and interaction design can address these limitations.

  • Agentic AI & LLM Agents
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation & Agent Memory
  • Human–AI Interaction
  • AI Systems for Real-World Applications

Education

Andong National University

Bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering Education · GPA 3.49 / 4.5

  • Graduation project: deep learning for apple disease detection.

Selected AI & Engineering Projects

RAG-Based Question Answering for Board Game Rules

Internal PoC during employment at Red Button

  • Built and tested a LangChain pipeline for rulebook indexing, passage retrieval, and grounded answer generation.
  • Observed limitations in interpreting user intent and multi-constraint queries; deferred rollout because the prototype did not achieve sufficient usability or answer quality.
Project details

Deep Learning for Apple Disease Detection

Graduation project · IITP / Korean Foundation for Quality AI training

  • Handled data, modeling, and backend work: disease-image collection and validation, data pipelines, and CNN training experiments.
  • Organized small models hierarchically; implemented quantization, TensorFlow Lite deployment, and an inference API for resource-constrained environments.
Project details

Structured-Document OCR & Data Pipeline

EPIKAR · Python, OpenCV, Tesseract, Flask

  • Sole developer across collection, labeling, image generation, training, inference, APIs, and on-premises deployment; approximately 1,000 source and 100,000+ generated images.
  • Reached approximately 93% structured-table recognition accuracy on an internal test set (target: 99%), using ground-truth scoring; assessed feasibility and cost against commercial OCR.
Project details

AI-Assisted Text Simplification for Slow Learners

Frontend development · Tech for Impact / Peach Market

  • Built Peachseoga AI’s conversational React UI, administration and account screens, and API integration, considering slow learners’ cognitive characteristics; scope: frontend and service integration.
