Yeonsun Yang

👋 I'm Yeonsun Yang.

I’m in my 3rd year of a combined master's and Ph.D. program in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) at DGIST. I am working with Prof. Jean Young Song at DIAG (Designing Intelligence Augmentation Group).
I aim to support people in enhancing their quality of life through synergistic collaboration with AI agents. Toward this overarching goal, I am specifically interested in building web-based interactive learning systems that maximize learning outcomes and deliver both motivation and personalized experiences, harnessing human cognitive ability and AI autonomy.
