When I was an undergraduate student (Dept. of Linguistics, Korea Univ.), I was elected as the chair of the Student’s Association of Department of Linguistics in Korea in 1997. I had participated in various projects on language application since 2001, which made me interested in computational linguistics. After graduation, I had worked at an NLP company (Eoneo Inc. - Language Technology Total Solution) for three and a half years.
I started my graduate studies in 2006 (Dept. of Linguistics, Korea Univ.). On the one hand, I have implemented several language processing systems on the basis of HPSG. On the other hand, I have studied statistical methodology that deals with language resources, such as POS-tagged corpora, treebanks, WordNet, and so on. I studied at City University of Hong Kong as a visiting researcher in 2007. I served as a secretary of the 2nd Brain Korean 21 Project - KLing Forum, and worked at COSMOS (Computational Semantics Lab.). In 2008, I received a scholarship, from the Korean government (Global Internship Fellows), to serve an internship at NICT (National Institute of Information and Communications Technology) in Japan. I had worked at the Language Infrastructure Group of NICT from Feb. 2009 to Jul. 2009 (Project Title : Exploiting Multilingual Text for Grammar Development).
Now, I am a Ph.D. student at the University of Washington (Dept. of Linguistics) (with Top Scholar Award). At the UW, I'm studying computational linguistics under the tutelage of Prof. Emily M. Bender.
I’m a student member of DELPH-IN, and I've also participated in building up the Korean Resource Grammar (KRG). I am now serving as an editor of the UWWPL as well.
