Summary
Seong Oh is a professor and independent group leader specializing in Scalable Trustworthy AI, with a decade of experience building explainable, robust, and probabilistic ML models that prioritize human supervision and cost-effective guidance. He completed a PhD at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics focused on privacy and security in computer vision and machine learning, followed by research roles at LINE, NAVER (as technical lead), and a Google internship. At the University of Tübingen he founded the STAI group and later joined KAIST as faculty, bridging academic rigor with industry collaboration through advisory work for Parameter Lab and partnerships with Naver. His training as a Cambridge mathematician (MMath, Wrangler) underpins a principled, quantitative approach to model reliability and uncertainty. Notably, he blends theoretical depth with applied impact—translating privacy- and robustness-focused research into practical tools for large-scale AI deployments. Based in Seoul, he continues to push trustworthy-AI research toward real-world, scalable solutions.
