About Me

Hi, I am an assistant professor at Korea Military Academy, located in Seoul, South Korea. I am broadly interested in survey sampling and missing data analysis, and in developing statistical foundations for modern Artificial Intelligence. I received my PhD from the Department of Statistics, Iowa State University in 2024. My dissertation advisor is Professor Jae-Kwang Kim. I am also a researcher at AI Research and Development Center, Korea Military Academy.

My research focuses on developing rigorous and practical statistical methods for complex survey data and missing data problems, with growing applications to AI and machine learning. Specifically, my work centers on a few key areas:

(1) Weight calibration for survey sampling and missing data analysis
(2) Transfer learning with covariate balancing under distributional shift
(3) AI-driven statistical learning and high dimensional data analysis
