Young-Joo Chung Email and Phone Number

As a Research Scientist at Rakuten, one of the world's largest e-commerce companies serving 1.7 billion global members, I bridge the gap between cutting-edge machine learning research and real-world applications. With over 10 years of experience, I guide teams in building machine learning solutions that drive business value.I'm passionate about continuously learning and developing advanced machine learning techniques, which is reflected in my publications at major conferences like RecSys and SIGIR, and over 10 patents. I'm also dedicated to sharing knowledge with others through study sessions and publications - as part of this effort, I co-authored "Your First Machine Learning Book" in Korean, which was selected as a Sejong Scholarly Book by the Korea Publication Industry Promotion Agency in 2018.
