Junuk Cha
Computer Vision & Deep Learning Researcher · Senior Researcher at NC AI
I am a senior researcher at NC AI (Digital Twin R&D, Pangyo). Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the AMI Lab, KAIST (Aug. 2025 – Aug. 2026), working with Prof. Tae-Hyun Oh. I received my combined M.S./Ph.D. from the Artificial Intelligence Graduate School (AIGS) at UNIST in the UVL Lab, advised by Prof. Seungryul Baek, and my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from UNIST in 2021.
During my Ph.D., I interned at Adobe (San Jose) and Inria (Nice). After graduating, I worked as a postdoc at KETI before joining KAIST.
