Jaedong Hwang @jaedonghwang.bsky.social · 07/06/2026Started my journey as a Research Scientist Intern at Meta Reality Labs in Burlingame (the best office view I've ever seen) late this May! Always looking to connect with fellow researchers. Drop me a DM if you're in the Bay Area and want to chat! 000

Jaedong Hwang @jaedonghwang.bsky.social · 16/07/2025We have one poster in this afternoon's session at #ICML2025 (West Exhibition Hall B2-B3, W-414). Unfortunately, none of the authors could attend the conference, but feel free to contact me if you have any questions! icml.cc/virtual/2025... 010
Jaedong Hwang @jaedonghwang.bsky.social · 15/07/2025🧵1/10 LLMs can answer in many languages. But do they think in them? Even when prompted in Swahili or Thai, models often switch to English for reasoning. This breaks interpretability and trust. So we ask: Can LLMs reason in the input language? 120
Jaedong Hwang @jaedonghwang.bsky.social · 12/06/2025#CVPR2025 Six years have passed since the 'Computer Vision After 5 Years' workshop at CVPR 2019. In it, Bill Freeman predicted that vision-science-inspired algorithms would lead the way. Instead, the field is now dominated by generative AI and foundation models. 1/2 110
Jaedong Hwang @jaedonghwang.bsky.social · 26/04/2025We learned the bitter lession that a poster should be checked before the poster session #ICLR2025. Thank you all for coming and we are delight that you enjoyed our mistakes. We are also highly appeciate authors of MMSearch allowing us to use their panel. 020
Jaedong Hwang @jaedonghwang.bsky.social · 25/04/2025📢 Excited to share that I will be presenting our paper on Neuro-Inspired SLAM at #ICLR2025 TOMORROW! 🗓 Saturday, April 26th 10:00 - 12:30 pm 📍 Hall 3 (Poster #55) jd730.github.io/projects/FAR... 010

Explains emergence of multiple grid cell modules, w/ excellent match to data! Novel mechanism for applying across vast systems from development to ecosystems. 🧵👇nature.comGlobal modules robustly emerge from local interactions and smooth gradients - NatureThe principle of peak selection is described, by which local interactions and smooth gradients drive self-organization of discrete global modules. 29832
