Hwiyeon Yoo

I am a final year PhD Student at Robot Learning Laboratory in Seoul National University (SNU), Korea, and I am advised by Prof. Songhwai Oh . Previously, I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from SNU in 2017.

My research interests are focused on vision-based robot learning and semantic perception. I am particularly interested in developing semantic visual perception algorithms for real-world mobile robots. My research interests include computer vision, embodied visual navigation, robotics, autonomous driving, and efficient ML models.
