Prof. John Kim was recently inducted into the IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Microarchitecture (MICRO) conference Hall-of-Fame and this is the first time that a researcher from Korean academia is inducted.
MICRO, along with ISCA and HPCA, is considered to be the most prestigious conference in architecture, with MICRO having one of the longest histories as this year’s MICRO was the 51st edition of the conference.
This accomplishment results from that Prof. John Kim is the best researcher in Korea in the field of Interconnection Networks and Parallel Architectures and he published 8 or more papers at the conference.
Prof. Kim was also inducted into ISCA hall-of-fame last year and he is the only researcher from Asia to be elected to the hall-of-fame for both ISCA and MICRO and this fact shows that the excellence of his research is acknowledged in the whole world.

Ph.D. candidate Dahun Kim, M.S candidate Sanghyun Woo, and Dr. Joonyoung Lee (Advisor: Prof. Inso Kweon) awarded the 1st place prize in “ChaLearn Looking at People Challenge” co-organized by Google, Amazon, and DisneyLab of the European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) held on September 9th.
The ‘Video Decaptioning’ challenge is a “video inpainting” task that recovers raw video by recognizing and eliminating arbitrarily mixed text in the video.
In particular, this work was recognized as a meaningful academic achievement by proposing a new concept “DVDNet: Deep Blind Video Decaptioning with 3D-2D Gated Convolutions” for video processing and they succeeded in restoring images with the overwhelming performance.
Congratulations.
Ph.D. candidate Eungyo Jeong (Advisor: Prof. Kyungcheol Choi) awarded the Best Poster Award at E-MRS 2018 Fall Meeting in Poland.
The title of the paper is ‘ALD-based Stress Optimized Washable Encapsulation Barrier with a Multi-functional Capping Layer for Wearable Organic Devices’
Congratulations to Eungyo Jeong and Prof. Kyungcheol Choi.
