Assistant Professor

🧭 We develop Trustworthy Cyber-Physical AI.

Sangdon Park is an assistant professor of Graduate School of Artificial Intelligence (GSAI) and Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at POSTECH. He leads Machine Learning Lab in collaboration with other faculty members. He is also a member of National AI Research Lab, Global AI Frontier Lab, and Team Atlanta.

His research focuses on learning for safe and trustworthy cyber-physical AI by developing principled learning algorithms for safe adaptation – from theory to deployment.

πŸ“Œ Notice

πŸ“£ Hiring: I’m looking for self-motivated graduate students, particularly interested in the following:

  1. Foundation of AI Alignment via Conformal Prediction and Abstention
  2. Physical AI Safety
  3. AI Red Teaming

For POSTECH undergraduate research (intern, CSED399, or CSED499), feel free to email me (possibly with your CV) for discussion on research directions.

For prospective PhD+MS, PhD, and MS students, please email me with your CV – undergraduate students who wish to apply, I recommend having an internship with me.
