​JINYOUNG YEO (여진영) 

I am a Ph.D student in Data Intelligence (DI) Group, advised by Prof. Seung-won Hwang, and Geometric Algorithms (GA) Group, advised by Prof. Hee-Kap Ahn. My research interests are in data mining and data-driven intelligence, particularly the areas of bridging the gap between human and machine knowledge by knowledge harvesting, integration, transfer, and generation.
