Kyongsik Yun is a technologist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and a senior member of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). His work focuses on building brain-inspired technologies, including deep learning models for computer vision, natural language processing, and autonomous systems. His research explores the intersection of human-like intention processing in AI systems, with applications ranging from space exploration to healthcare. Kyongsik is particularly interested in how AI systems can better understand and simulate human intentionality in decision-making processes, which has implications for autonomous control in extreme environments.
