Jakwang Kim

Jakwang Kim is a PIMS Postdoctoral fellow at the University of British Columbia, under the sponsorship of the PIMS Research Network - Kanotrovich Initiative. His area of research is in Optimal Transport, as well as high-dimensional inference problems like stochastic block models, planted clique problems, and graph matching problems. In particular, statistical-information phase transition will play an important role to understand not only these toy models of random optimization but also real-world problems, e.g. success of deep learning, LLM etc.
