I am a Master’s student at the Graduate School of Data Science, Pusan National University, Korea, and a member of BAELAB advised by Prof. Hyerim Bae.

My research focuses on data-driven decision making for container terminal operations, in particular reducing rehandling in import container yards through survival analysis of container dwell time and learning-based stacking policies.

Yard Simulator — browser-based 3D visualization of container terminal yard operations

Built with three.js; replays yard activity (vessel calls, quay cranes, stacking and retrieval) and overlays colour modes for container flow, tier and predicted dwell time. Clicking a container opens its EDI event timeline together with the survival-model estimate of its remaining dwell time.
