Jieun Kim

Hi! I'm a Ph.D. student at the Soft Computing Lab at Yonsei University, advised by Prof. Sung-Bae Cho.

My research focuses on vision, multimodal learning, and trustworthy AI (XAI) . I'm particularly interested in understanding how models perceive and reason about the visual world, and how we can ensure their outputs are interpretable and reliable.

Currently, I am actively seeking research internship opportunities where I can contribute to and collaborate on cutting-edge problems in vision and multimodal AI.
