Daeun Song

I'm a postdoctoral associate in Robotixx group at George Mason University, USA, working with Dr. Xuesu Xiao. I was a former postdoc at University of Maryland, working with Dr. Dinesh Manocha. I recieved my Ph.D. degree at Ewha Womnas University, Korea in 2023, advised by Dr. Young J. Kim in Computer Graphics Lab.

I am interested in Human-Robot Interaction problems and many other fun automated systems in real world!
