Introduction

👋 My name is Quang-Minh (I go by Minh too). I am a second-year master’s student at KAIST Graduate School of Data Science, where I work with Professor Taegyoon Kim. I previously obtained my bachelor’s degree from KAIST with a double major in Electrical Engineering ⚡ and Mathematical Sciences 🧮.

I am curious about fundamental reasoning and cognitive capabilities of (multimodal) 🤖 LLMs. Driven by this, I conduct evaluation and interpretation studies to better understand models’ working mechanisms in various contexts, from social reasoning to mathematical problem solving.

We (Professor Kim and I) are actively looking for collaborators. Feel free to email me, or we can grab coffee if you pop by Daejeon, South Korea!

News

• September 2025: I will present our ongoing work, “Investigating Difficulty Perception in the Reasoning of LLMs”, at the MathNLP Workshop at EMNLP 2025! Let’s connect in Suzhou.
• May 2025: Our paper “Is External Information Useful for Stance Detection with LLMs?” has been accepted to the 🎊Findings of ACL 2025🎊! I’ll be in Vienna to present; come say hi if you’ll be there too!
• August 2024: I graduated from the undergraduate program at KAIST and will continue my journey here as a master’s student.

Miscellaneous

I enjoy learning about history 📜, especially East Asian history, as well as playing musical instruments 🎵 (I play the piano, guitar, ukulele, and harmonica). I have a YouTube channel here where I post music covers and presentations for my course projects. Check it out if you are interested!
