Short BiO
I study the {application, development, impact} of AI in e-commerce and digital economy. Please see the research page for more details.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree [2009] in Computer Science from Columbia University (Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence Focus), a Master’s degree [2010] in Statistics (Master's Thesis: Johnson-Lindenstrauss Lemma and its Effect on Supervised Learning) from Yale University and PhD [2015] from the Operation, Information and Decisions department of the Wharton School (Thesis: Three Essays in Big Data Consumer Analytics in E-Commerce). I previously worked at many different tech start-ups (mobile, b2b analytics, recommendation web 2.0) and Blackrock as a quantitative software engineer and at Thomson Reuters as a machine learning contractor building a natural language processing engine for financial data. Please contact me at Leedokyun@gmail.com for Academic-Industry research collaboration, consulting, and speaking inquiries.
I am an avid fan of Sci fi series and have watched over 100+ series from the beginning to the end or their cancellation. I grew up in NY, Queens. My friends and colleagues call me DK.
