Welcome to my personal space where I present things I have been doing and have done

Yoonsoo Nam
Research Engineer and Fullstack Developer

Thank you for coming to visit! I am currently finishing my Masters in CS at USC, following my BS in CS in Aug. 2023. I am getting my accelerated Masters through a Progressive Degree Program which according to its website “enables superior USC undergraduate students to apply undergraduate coursework toward the completion of a USC master’s degree” 😎.

I am currently working on Multimodal AI research, with a focus on language grounding. My first paper on video-to-video summarization by grounding visual information with text is an example of what I have been researching (accepted to ICASSP ‘24 🥳). I have also been involved in missing modality research and more researches to come!

Apart from research, I have experiences doing full stack development. As a board member of Scope, USC CS club teaching web frameworks, I have also been thoroughly involved in web dev. I think that my award winning hackathon project MAIT (Medical AI Interpreter and Translator) shows my excitement to building applications using AI 🤖.

In my free time, I like to surf 🏄, snowboard 🏂, golf ⛳, and weight-lift 🏋️.
