Team ROBI is a research team of three graduate students — Hye-Jung Yoon, Yesol Park, and Juno Kim— at the Biointelligence Lab, Seoul National University, advised by Prof. Byoung-Tak Zhang.
Hye-Jung Yoon
Hye-Jung Yoon is an Integrated M.S./Ph.D. student in the Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence at Seoul National University, advised by Prof. Byoung-Tak Zhang (Biointelligence Lab).
Research interests: Embodied AI, Robot Perception, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, 3D Scene Understanding, Robot Learning, and Sim2Real Transfer — with a focus on integrating explicit 3D perception with policy learning for robust manipulation and mobile robotics.
Education
- Integrated M.S./Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence, Seoul National University (2022 – present, advisor: Prof. Byoung-Tak Zhang)
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering, Ewha Womans University
Yesol Park
Yesol Park is an Integrated M.S./Ph.D. student in the Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence at Seoul National University, advised by Prof. Byoung-Tak Zhang (Biointelligence Lab).
Research interests: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models, Robot Perception, 3D Scene Understanding, and Real2Sim2Real Transfer — with an emphasis on connecting real-world visual observations with structured 3D representations and simulation for effective robot policy deployment in real-world environments.
Education
- Integrated M.S./Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence, Seoul National University (2022 – present, advisor: Prof. Byoung-Tak Zhang)
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Engineering, Chung-Ang University
Juno Kim is an Integrated M.S./Ph.D. student in the Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence at Seoul National University, advised by Prof. Byoung-Tak Zhang (Biointelligence Lab).
Research interests: Embodied AI, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) Models, 3D Scene Understanding, Spatial Reasoning, and Mobile Manipulation — with an emphasis on developing spatially grounded robot intelligence that integrates semantic and geometric understanding of indoor environments with generalizable robot policies, enabling mobile manipulators and humanoid robots to autonomously plan and execute complex, long-horizon tasks in real-world environments.
