Hoki Kim is an Assistant Professor at Chung-Ang University with seven years of experience at the intersection of machine learning research and software engineering. Previously a postdoctoral researcher at Seoul National University, he completed an integrated PhD there and focuses on neural network robustness and adversarial attacks. He has hands-on experience implementing and maintaining PyTorch adversarial attack methods—contributing to popular toolsets by adding MultiAttack and DI2FGSM and modernizing implementations like FGSM, PGD, CW, and DeepFool. Based in Seoul, he combines academic rigor with practical ML engineering, routinely debugging and updating attack code to keep it compatible with current frameworks. His work reflects both deep theoretical knowledge and a pragmatic approach to reproducible, open-source research tools. Colleagues note his knack for turning complex adversarial concepts into reliable, reusable code.
