Hello, I’m jaechang Kim. I’m a graduate student in POSTECH Machine Learning Lab since 2021, under supervision of Prof. Jungseul Ok.

My current research focuses primarily on leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance explainable AI. I explore how the reasoning and linguistic capabilities of LLMs can help interpret complex models and facilitate knowledge extraction. Besides this core direction, my broader research interests include:

  • Trustworthy Machine Learning: Developing methods to explain the rationale behind machine learning model decisions and effectively transfer this knowledge to humans.

  • Diverse ML Applications: Investigating a variety of applications, such as automated theorem proving and sound source separation.
