I am a researcher at OpenAI. I finished my Ph.D. at the Pohang University of Science and Technology under supervision of Suha Kwak and Bohyung Han. I am interested in building machines that can solve a variety of emerging problems by constantly acquiring skills and learning to understand the problems. My research focuses on learning deep neural networks with a few general interfaces to solve a large number of problems.
