Hello, I'm Gunhee Kim. I am a PhD student of Computer Science
Department at Carnegie
Mellon University.
I completed my master degree at The Robotics Institute
in May 2008. I was advised
by Martial
Hebert.
The other commitee
member was Christos
Faloutsos. I've had several internships at Honda Research
Institute Cambridge and Intel
Pittsburgh and CSAIL
MIT.
Before coming to CMU, I was a research scientist in Intelligent Robotics
Research Center at KIST
(the oldest national research Institute in Korea) for five years.
My research interests are computer vision, machine learning,
data mining, and robotics.
