Jinyeong Bak is an associate professor and computer scientist with 17 years of experience bridging academic research and applied data science, currently on faculty at Sungkyunkwan University. He earned a Ph.D. from KAIST and has a strong publication record stemming from internships at Microsoft Research Asia and the UN Global Pulse Lab, where his topic-modeling work on social media was published at EMNLP and an ICML workshop. His research blends natural language processing and unsupervised modeling to extract signals from social platforms, with practical experience developing methodologies for keyword expansion and self-disclosure detection. Known for rigorous academic training and near-perfect undergraduate and graduate grades, he combines theoretical depth with hands-on project delivery across research labs and industry collaborations. A personal site (nosyu.kr) and concise GitHub persona hint at a focused researcher who values clarity over flourish.
