Bio: Hi all, this is Hyeonggeun Yun, but most of you who know me would know me as Geun, and I prefer to be called by this easier name.

I was born and lived my early childhood in South Korea, then moved to Australia where I have lived in different places, including Gold Coast, Townsville, and Canberra since 2014.

At the end of 2025, I completed Bachelor of Advanced Computing (Research and Development) (Honours) at the Australian National University (ANU) under the supervision of Prof. Hanna Suominen and Prof. Amanda Barnard AM. I am currently conducting research with Dr. Shahadat Uddin at the University of Sydney (USyd) and working as a teaching assistant at both ANU and USyd, with plans to begin a PhD at USyd in 2027.

In my free time, I enjoy playing boardgames, and try to stay active with some exercise.

Research area of interest: Explainable AI, algorithmic fairness at group and individual levels, graph machine learning, and health informatics. My research aims to develop transparent and equitable machine-learning methods.
