Sungmin Passed His Dissertation Proposal Defense!

🎉 Huge congratulations to Sungmin on this incredible milestone and achievement! đźŽ‰

His dissertation research tackles machine learning techniques for enhanced diagnosis of nuclear power plants using mobile robots. Key topics include:
âś… Anomaly detection and localization
âś… Measurement selection for robots
âś… Asynchronous data processing
This work aims to shift the paradigm of online monitoring for industrial facilities by incorporating not only continuously streamed signals from fixed sensors but also adaptive data acquisition through mobile inspection robots.

Showcasing Innovative Digital Twin Research at the ANS Winter Meeting

Youndo attended the ANS Winter Meeting, a prestigious conference that brings together experts from industry and academia to exchange ideas and showcase their work. During the event, Youndo presented two projects from our lab: Radiation Simulation and Visualization in Nuclear Power Plant Digital Twins and Framework for Human-Robot Collaboration Using Digital Twins.

Both presentations gained significant interest from attendees, highlighting the relevance and impact of our research. This conference provided an excellent opportunity to share our lab’s achievements with a broader audience, gain insights from other cutting-edge projects, and explore potential collaborations for future advancements.
