Jaemin Shin is an Applied Scientist at Amazon with five years of experience building production-grade ML and federated learning systems, combining deep academic research from KAIST (PhD) with hands-on engineering in industry. He has driven efficient on-device LLM fine-tuning and multimodal mental-health monitoring that improved AUROC and MAE versus prior work, and developed low-power sensing hardware and federated methods recognized at CHI and EMNLP. His internships at Microsoft and Cisco produced measurable speed and accuracy gains in FL systems and led to patent filings and open-source contributions. As a contributor to the widely used dcm2niix project, he improved DICOM→NIfTI conversion for GE scanners, surfacing subtle metadata fixes that benefit neuroimaging workflows. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he blends systems-level optimization with applied ML research to move prototypes into scalable, device-aware production.

dcm2nii DICOM to NIfTI converter: compiled versions available from NITRC
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer
Contributions:1 review, 20 commits, 22 PRs in 2 years
Contributions summary:Jaemin primarily focused on enhancing the functionality of the DICOM to NIfTI converter, particularly for GE medical imaging data. Their work involved implementing and refining the detection of GE group delays and slice timing information, including handling multi-phase EPI and diffusion sequences. They also addressed specific issues related to software version detection and Total Readout Time calculation, improving the accuracy of metadata extraction for the conversion process. Furthermore, the user added the capability to handle GE direct fieldmaps.
