Kyumin Hwang

Hi, I'm Kyumin Hwang, a Ph.D. Student in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at DGIST, South Korea. I am conducting my research under the supervision of Prof. Sunghoon Im at the DGIST Computer Vision Lab.

Previously, I earned the B.S. degree from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Kyungpook National University, in 2020, and the M.S. degree from the Department of Information and Communication Engineering, DGIST, in 2022.

My research interests include 3D computer vision, particularly multi-view stereo for 3D reconstruction, and deep learning with geometry for autonomous driving.
Recently, I have also been focusing on 3D scene understanding, including forecasting and planning, as well as video diffusion models.
