Developed a multi-step, no-external-API document extraction and chunking pipeline for ixi-RAG, the in-house retrieval-augmented generation(RAG) system for proprietary knowledge- Improved correct passage retrieval (defined as top-3 recall) from 0.633 to 0.907(+0.274) and response correctness from 0.547 to 0.753(+0.206) on the Allganize RAG benchmark- Optimized average per-page processing times by 56%, to slightly over 3 seconds

Seoul, South Korea

Improved the performance and analyzable range of 3Cnet, an RNN-based deep learning model that predicts the pathogenicity of amino acid mutations- Raised the top-5 recall of pathogenic protein variants from 0.430 to 0.548 (+0.118, identifying one or two pathogenic variants amongst 10K+ other variants)- Broadened the types of analyzable protein variants from four to fourteenPrototyped a system for identifying promising drug target candidates- Integrated multiple disease-drug-target databases- Added feature to filter targets with known severe adverse side effectsMaintained on-premise AI R&D servers- Introduced containerization for environment isolation as the number of users increased from three to eight- Introduced monitoring of core server metrics- Handled matters related to server networking, storage and backups

South Korea
