Research Director: Prof. Eun Som Jeon
Host: National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF), Korea
Period: 2026.03.01 ~ 2030.02.28
Abstract: This study aims to establish a multimodal XAI-based knowledge distillation framework that integrates and analyzes lifelog data from sensors, images, and text, enabling the development of high-performance lightweight models by simultaneously capturing both the structural and semantic information involved in behavior analysis during the model compression process. Topology-based structural representations and semantic representations are aligned with the intermediate representations through explainable concept-level learning to enhance the model’s interpretability and generalization capability. This study finally aims to develop a robust lightweight AI model.
Research Director: Prof. Eun Som Jeon
Host: Technology and Information Promotion Agency for SMEs, Korea
Period: 2025.07.01 ~ 2026.12.31
Abstract: This study aims to develop commercial products for large vehicle accident prevention in diverse environments, as well as lightweight models for real-time processing. Lightweight models are required to enable real-time accident prevention, and datasets containing various environmental conditions are utilized to recognize diverse situational factors. In addition, this study seeks to develop a generalized modeling methodology that can be broadly applied across different environments and vehicle types.
