About me
I’m Chanwoo Park. I am a first-year Ph.D. student at MIT EECS & LIDS, advised by Asu Ozdaglar. I am closely working with Kaiqing Zhang.
My current research interests are:
- Intersection of (Multi-agent) Reinforcement Learning Theory, Game Theory, and Statistics
- Deep Learning Theory: Self Supervised Learning and Diffusion Model
- Equivariant Neural Networks (RL, DL)
Fortunately, as an undergraduate student, I worked with Prof. Taesung Park and Prof. Ernest K. Ryu at Seoul National University. Also, I did a research internship in NAVER AI Lab, advised by Sangdoo Yun and Sanghyuk Chun. I researched Deep Learning Theory with Computer Vision.
I am supported by Korea Foundation for Advanced Studies. Super thanks!
I am holding the certification in Korean actuary since 2018.
I run ML-Theory-Korea with my colleagues. I like to talk about the theory or application of deep learning (diffusion model, prompt learning…) and (multi-agent) reinforcement learning. Feel free to email me (cpark97 at mit.edu). We are actively researching on several areas.
