Hyelin Nam

I'm a master student at KAIST, supervised by Professor Jong Chul Ye. Before starting my Master's degree, I was supervised by Professor Jaegul Choo.

My recent research focuses on generative models, captivated by their positive impact on the AI community. Currently, I'm focused on enhancing diffusion models' generalization and adaptabtiliy, so they can function effectively as strong vision foundation models.

**I am actively looking for PhD openings starting in Fall 2025**
