Dr. Sungmin Park, a graduate of our university’s Department of Artificial Intelligence (Advisor: JONG WUK, LEE), has been appointed as a full-time faculty member in the Division of AI Data Convergence at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, effective March 2026.
Dr. Sungmin Park received his Ph.D. in February 2025 with a dissertation titled "Improving Linear Item-Item Recommender Models for Data Bias, Semantics, and Temporality."
During his studies, Dr. Park conducted in-depth research in recommender systems, data mining, and natural language processing. He achieved outstanding, world-class research performance by publishing a total of 12 papers at top-tier international AI conferences such as SIGIR and KDD. In particular, his work on mitigating data bias and optimizing linear recommender models by incorporating temporal characteristics has attracted significant attention from the academic community.
