Jungmyung Wi
I work on visual generative models, vision-language models, and domain transfer with a focus on reward optimization and alignment for compositional text-to-image generation.
Researcher in visual generation and alignment.
I am a master's student in Artificial Intelligence at Korea University and a researcher in UTL Lab. My research interests include image generative models, text-to-image diffusion models, vision-language models, and domain transfer. Looking ahead, I am interested in whether foundation models truly perceive and reason about the world, beyond simply improving them with supervised fine-tuning.
Text-to-image generation, diffusion models, VLMs, domain generalization, and unsupervised domain adaptation.
World models, vision-language-action models, and reasoning in LLMs and mLLMs.
