Fulton Schools of Engineering, Arizona State University. He earned his Ph.D. in the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in September 2019. During his Ph.D. studies and subsequent postdoctoral training, he worked at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as a research associate until September 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Ko\u2019s research focuses on data science, manufacturing science, and design science, with particular emphasis on their intersections. His work aims to establish foundational principles for Physical Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digitalization in manufacturing and design. These foundations enable tighter integration of AI and machine learning, cyber-physical systems, and digital twins across multiple spatial and temporal scales, particularly in advanced manufacturing domains such as additive manufacturing, semiconductor manufacturing, and robotics-based manufacturing. Ultimately, his research seeks to enhance control and decision-making in manufacturing and design\u2014spanning areas such as design for manufacturing, in-situ monitoring and control, and ex-situ evaluation\u2014by leveraging AI-driven insights derived from emerging data and knowledge generated through both virtual and physical systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CV: <a href=\"https:\/\/isearch.asu.edu\/profile\/4002102\/cv\">Curriculum Vitae<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"mYVXT\">\n<div class=\"LS81yb VICjCf\">\n<div class=\"hJDwNd-AhqUyc-uQSCkd purZT-AhqUyc-II5mzb pSzOP-AhqUyc-qWD73c JNdkSc\">\n<div class=\"JNdkSc-SmKAyb\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<div class=\"oKdM2c Kzv0Me\">\n<div id=\"h.39f6723a140c1850_11\" class=\"hJDwNd-AhqUyc-uQSCkd jXK9ad D2fZ2 OjCsFc wHaque GNzUNc\">\n<div class=\"jXK9ad-SmKAyb\">\n<div class=\"tyJCtd mGzaTb baZpAe\">\n<p><strong>Ph.D., Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering <\/strong>(Sep. 2019)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"CDt4Ke zfr3Q\">Nanyang Technological University (NTU)<\/li>\n<li class=\"CDt4Ke zfr3Q\">Agency for Science Technology and Research (A*STAR) scholar<\/li>\n<li class=\"CDt4Ke zfr3Q\">Research Associate at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>M.S., Industrial and Management Engineering <\/strong>(Feb. 2012)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"CDt4Ke zfr3Q\">Hanyang University<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>B.S., Industrial Engineering<\/strong> (Feb. 2010)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"CDt4Ke zfr3Q\">Hanyang University (ERICA)<\/li>\n<li class=\"CDt4Ke zfr3Q\">1st ranked in the graduating class<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>Research Interests:\u00a0<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Physical AI<\/li>\n<li>Digital Twins<\/li>\n<li>Engineering Foundation Models<\/li>\n<li>Generative &amp; Agentic AI<\/li>\n<li>Autonomous Robotics for Manufacturing<\/li>\n<li>Design &amp; Manufacturing Intelligence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Professional Experience:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Assistant Professor in Manufacturing Engineering, The School of Manufacturing Systems and Networks, The Ira A.
