CV | Google Scholar | | |


Hello, Welcome :)

My name is Chanyoung Kim (김찬영), a 2nd year PhD student at Yonsei University, advised by professor Seong Jae Hwang in the Medical Imaging & Computer Vision Lab. I collaborate with Prof. Ming-Hsuan Yang (UC Merced & Google DeepMind) and Dr. Roberto Alcover-Couso (Amazon). I also serve as a Local Student Liaison Officer for MICCAI Student Board.

My research interests include computer vision, unsupervised open-vocabulary image and video semantic segmentation, multi-modal image synthesis including medical domin images, and audio-visual representation.

I am currently looking for a research internship position for the summer of 2025!
