AI Researcher & Deep Learning Engineer
Specializing in Lifelong Learning Agents and Reinforcement Learning
I'm a Ph.D. student at Sungkyunkwan University, specializing in reinforcement learning, embodied AI agents, and lifelong learning systems. Recently completed a visiting research period at Carnegie Mellon University.
As a researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence and robotics, I focus on developing intelligent agents that can continuously learn and adapt in dynamic environments. My work spans reinforcement learning, multi-modal intelligence, and embodied AI systems. I recently completed a successful visiting scholar program at CMU, where I led the AIER project designing conversational robot systems for edge computing.

arXiv 2025 (preprint)
We introduce interactive world latent (IWoL), a representation learning framework designed to improve team coordination in multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL). By directly modeling communication protocols, IWoL captures both inter-agent relations and task-specific world information, enabling decentralized execution with implicit coordination while avoiding the shortcomings of explicit message passing. Evaluations across diverse MARL benchmarks show that IWoL consistently enhances team performance and can be integrated with existing MARL algorithms for further gains.

Skill Incremental Learning (SIL) is the process by which an embodied agent expands and refines its skill set over time while maintaining policy compatibility. We introduce SIL-C, a framework that preserves compatibility between incrementally learned skills and downstream policies through a bilateral lazy learning-based mapping that aligns subtask and skill spaces. This enables complex tasks to benefit from improved skills without retraining existing policies. Across diverse SIL scenarios, SIL-C sustains compatibility and efficiency throughout the learning process.
ICLR 2025
We present NeSyC, a neuro-symbolic continual learner that emulates the hypothetico-deductive model by continually formulating and validating knowledge from limited experiences through the combined use of LLMs. NeSyC enables embodied agents to tackle complex tasks more effectively in open-domain environments.
NeurIPS 2024
Continual Imitation Learning (CiL) involves extracting and accumulating task knowledge from demonstrations across multiple stages and tasks to achieve a multi-task policy. We present IsCiL, an adapter-based CiL framework that addresses the limitation of knowledge sharing by incrementally learning shareable skills from different demonstrations, thus enabling sample-efficient task adaptation.
ICML 2023
We propose a multimodal semantic skill learning framework for one-shot imitation learning in non-stationary environments. The approach enables agents to adapt quickly to new tasks through multi-modal skill representation and transfer.
