About

Hi! I’m a Master’s student in Industrial and Management Engineering at Hanyang University ERICA, advised by Prof. Stephane Barde at the Industrial Operations & Data Analytics (IODA) Lab.

My research focuses on Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) for lithium-ion batteries, with emphasis on deploying deep learning models on resource-constrained edge devices through model compression techniques. I am also actively researching in-situ defect detection and component fatigue prediction to enhance industrial reliability.
