About Me
Hello! My name is Kyunghun Nam.
I'll be graduating from my master's in 08.2025 and starting my PhD program in 09.2025.
My Master's research was supervised by Professor Sejun Park ([Homepage]).
I am passionate about leveraging mathematical optimization approaches to solve real-world problems in machine learning.
Research Interests
My primary research interests lie in the following areas:
- Mathematical and Stochastic Optimization in machine learning
- Utilizing (mathematical) theory to solve real-world problems
I am also interested in developing new optimizers that are more stable and faster training for large models and more memory/computationally efficient.
