During my summer visit to the University of Notre Dame, I visited the University of Toronto. I was lucky to be invited by PhD student SuHyeon Yoo to give a guest talk in her group, Dynamic Graphics Projects (DGP).

I gave a talk titled "Leveraging NLP Models in Practice", which introduced the ModSandbox research I published at CHI2023 and the TOMAS research I was doing during my summer visit.

Thank you very much to all the students and SuHyeon for listening to the talk.

After meeting and talking with Toby Li at CHI2023, I got the opportunity to visit his lab at the University of Notre Dame this summer. He warmly welcomed me and even celebrated my birthday.

I engaged in enthusiastic discussions and collaborated with two Chinese undergraduate interns he introduced, working on implementing TOMAS (Task-Oriented Multimodal Agent System).

While it's not yet complete, I plan to conduct additional user studies back in Korea and write a paper on it.

I visited Hamburg, Germany to attend CHI2023 and presented my paper "ModSandbox: Facilitating Online Community Moderation Through Error Prediction and Improvement of Automated Rules." It had been seven years since I first attended CHI in 2016. Although it was not a popular session, presenting my research in front of audience was a truly meaningful experience! I hope to have more opportunities to present at such conferences in the future.

Fortunately, I got an opportunity to participate in the conference as a student volunteer. I was able to meet a lot of graduate students in HCI fields. We shared our interesting research together.

My first paper, "ModSandbox: Facilitating Online Community Moderation Through Error Prediction and Improvement of Automated Rules," was accepted in CHI 2023! I collaborated with Jean Y. Song in 2019 Fall to publish a study about the system for online community moderators to configure their rule-baed moderation tools. The paper was rejected in CHI 2022 and CSCW 2022 and finally accepted in CHI 2023. Thanks to our advisor, Juho Kim, and co-authors, Jisoo and Mina. Also, I would like to thank Prof. Insik Shin for supporting me in continuing my research.

I helped to run the booth of Fluiz, a startup founded by my advisor, Insik Shin. I worked as a software engineer in the 2022 Fall and Winter. Our company won the CES 2023 Innovation Awards in the Software & Mobile Apps at CES 2023. We ran a booth at the KAIST section. I contributed to the process of winning the award and preparing the booth. Also, I explained our product, FLUID: Next-generation Multi-device Mobile Platform) to the people in the industry. It was a very valuable experience.

I attended UIST 2022 to present my UIST poster LV-Linker!

I met several enthusiastic researchers in the HCI field and shared my research ideas and directions. Especially, I made a lot of social connections with graduate students who have the same interests.

I'm selected as a Gary Marsden Travel Awardee, a travel support award of ACM SIGCHI. Thanks to the committee who give me financial support to attend on-site UIST 2022! I'll present a poster and meet a lot of people!

We designed and evaluated LV-Linker (Log and Video Linker), a web-based data viewer system for synchronizing both smartphone usage log and video data to help researchers quickly to analyze and easily understand user behaviors.

Thanks to my co-authors, Hansoo Lee, Youngji Koh, and Prof. Uichin Lee in KAIST!
