Background

I am currently a graduate student at University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) in pursuit of a PhD degree in Electrical Engineering under the supervision of Prof. Peyman Milanfar.
I obtained a M.S degree (2006) and a B.S degree(2004) in Electrical Engineering from Sungkyunkwan University, Seoul (skku)

DSPlab at SKKU in South Korea
