I study the {application, development, impact} of AI in e-commerce and the digital economy with focus on text. Specific agenda includes (1) developing and applying interpretable machine learning & natural language processing algorithms for economics of unstructured data, and (2) applying generative models on text for algorithmic theory building. I also run the BIT (Business Insights through Text) lab to study application domains such as content engineering and advertising, technological innovation, and persuasion.
My work has been published at journals and conferences including Management Science, Information Systems Research, Journal of Marketing Research, AAAI, AIES, and WWW. I am a recipient of ISS Gordon B Davis Young Scholar, 2021 Marketing Science Institute Young Scholar, CDO Magazine Academic Data Leader, ISR Best Paper Award, MSBA Teaching Award, Management Science Distinguished Service Award, and Best Conference Paper Awards. My work is supported by organizations such as Adobe, Bosch Institute, Google Cloud, Marketing Science Institute, McKinsey & Co, Nvidia, and Net Institute.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree [2009] in Computer Science from Columbia University (Machine Learning 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). Before academia, I worked at 4 tech start-ups and Blackrock as a quantitative software engineer and at Thomson Reuters as an ML 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.
