Jong-Hwan Lee (이종환), Ph.D.

My longstanding research interests have been in the investigation of hidden information underlying sensory signals and the development of efficient methods for accurate analysis of this information. My recent research has focused on the application of artificial neural networks and/or machine learning algorithms to neuroimaging data, such as structural MRI (sMRI), functional MRI (fMRI), and electroencephalography (EEG). In our lab, we have been working on studies/projects such as (i) a novel application of independent vector analysis and (ii) an iterative approach of dual-regression with sparse constraints on spatial patterns of neuronal activations applying to group fMRI data processing, (iii) automated classification of thought processes measured via fMRI data, (iv) analysis of simultaneous EEG-fMRI methods and their applications to sleep-onset/epileptic-foci detection and to denoising of cryogenic pump artifact of MRI scanner, (v) real-time fMRI based neurofeedback, (vi) nicotine addiction research via neuroimaging, and (vii) an early diagnosis of neurodegenerative and/or neuropsychiatric diseases from multimodal neuroimaging using advanced methods such as deep learning/machine learning and representational similarity analysis. More recently, I am getting more interested in NeuroAI which entails research that utilizes functional neuroimaging modalities and AI models to investigate the information processing of the human brain and/or to facilitate the development of the Human-inspired AI models using the insights from NeuroAI research.

Post-doctoral Researcher

Juhyeon Lee (이주현), Ph.D.

I specialize in fMRI analysis and deep learning. My research focuses on two main areas: (A) exploring the representational similarity (RSA) of deep learning models to the brain, and (B) using deep learning models to decode information from the brain.

PhD Candidates and Integrated MS-PhD Candidates

Changha Lee (이창하)

I’m interested in developing algorithms to figure out how cognitive processes work by using fMRI data.

JaeEon Kang (강재언)

I am interested in Emotion processing with deep-learning and neuroplasticity algorithms for brain diseases with fMRI.

Jihun Kim (김지훈)

I’m interested in developing brain-inspired RL algorithms and finding the correlation between DL (or RL) models and brain.

Minwoo Lee (이민우)

I’m interested in the research about relationship between the mind and the brain with emotion processing with multimodal data espacially EEG.

MS Candidates

Jinsoo Jeon (전진수)

My research interest is emotion processing with deep-learning by combining multimodal datasets including EEG-fMRI.

Chaelynn Kim (김채린)

My research focuses on exploring the mechanisms of brain disorders using fMRI and deep learning, as well as examining the similarities between deep learning models and brain region functions.

JiYun Park (박지윤)
