Hello, World!

I’m Kyaw Ye Thu, a final-year undergraduate student at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) in the School of Computing. I grew up in a lovely country, Myanmar, and moved to Korea to pursue higher education in Korea in 2022.

My research interests span two realms primarily, visual computing and physical AI, with the latter informed by the former.

1. Visual Computing: I am gravitated towards computer graphics, from various rendering techniques to 3D scene reconstruction consistent in appearance, geometry, and physics.
2. Physical AI: I am particularly interested in training agents to perceive, plan, and act within 3D spaces and creating systems (eg. simulators) for enabling such.

Outside my study, I used to teach teenagers from Myanmar about programming and artificial intelligence with Thate Pan Hub. I am now offering free concelling sessions for KAIST admissions with The Hook.

I love doing everything related to football⚽ and playing story-driven RPGs🎮 (The Witcher 3, Oh my!). Story telling whether through a video, a game or a theatrical performance🎭 is an art that deeply captivates me. I always wanted to be involved, as a director or an actor, in some sort of narrative projects that tell powerful stories.

Feel free to reach me out if you want to find ways to work with me together!
