Postdoctoral Researcher, KIST Water-Energy Nexus Lab (agentic AI systems and RAG pipelines)
Built agentic AI systems for autonomous monitoring, decision support, and control of electrochemical water-treatment processes with an emphasis on connecting process data and domain knowledge to language models. Implemented retrieval-augmented generation pipelines enabling operator-facing troubleshooting and technical assistance without relying on cloud access. Explored meta-reinforcement learning approaches to improve controller adaptation across varying operating regimes. • Integrated process data with domain knowledge for RAG-based assistance • Developed agentic monitoring and decision-support workflows • Designed operator troubleshooting and technical-assistance interfaces • Investigated meta-RL for adaptation under variable influent and disturbances
