Kyungyeon Lee

PhD @ UMD | Intern @ Sony CSL

Hello, I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Maryland, College Park , a member of the Embodied Dynamics Laboratory, and advised by Prof. Jun Nishida.

My research lies at the intersection of human–computer interaction, haptics, and human-centered AI, with a focus on accelerating skill acquisition through personalized haptic feedback. I design personalized systems and wearable interfaces that adapt to individual users' abilities, preferences, and learning dynamics.
