Junyoung Seo I'm a final-year Ph.D. student at KAIST AI, advised by Professor Seungryong Kim. I'll also be joining NVIDIA SIL as a Research Scientist. My research focuses on machine learning and computer vision, with particular emphasis on large-scale generative models like diffusion models for video, 3D, and 4D representations. I'm currently exploring world simulation models that can help embodied agents, including better video world modeling and agentic simulation. I'm particularly interested in capabilities that matter for modeling the world but receive less emphasis in visual generative modeling. |
