About

I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH). My work centers on geometric algorithms, especially covering and partition problems. Recently, I have been studying strip-based covering and classification problems, color-spanning structures, and triangulation-related questions.

Research Interests

  • Partitioning and Covering
  • Bichromatic and color-spanning geometric optimization
  • Optimization of NP-hard problems
