About Me
I’m a senior research scientist and lead the Voice team at Naver Cloud, Korea (from Jan 2023; Naver Corporation from Mar 2017 to Dec 2022). I’m also an adjunct professor in Artificial Intelligence Institute at Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea (from Aug 2022).
I received my Ph.D. degree in department of Electrical and Electronics at Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea. During my Ph.D., I served my internships at Microsoft Research Asia, Beijing, China and Qualcomm Technologies Inc., San Diego, CA.
My research interests include speech synthesis and its real-world applications. Specifically, I develop a high-quality TTS api for cloud services (Clova Voice Pro, Clova Dubbing), an automatic TTS modeling with smartphone recordings (Voice Maker), and a hybrid TTS system combining deep learning and unit-selection TTS models (Clova AI speaker, Naver Maps navigation, Naver News anchor).
If you are interested in me, feel free to contact me.
