About

Young-Ho Bae is a researcher whose work bridges the frontiers of space situational awareness and human-agent interaction. His most impactful contribution is the development of OWL-Net, a global network of robotic telescopes dedicated to satellite observation. This system, detailed in his highly cited 2018 paper (31 citations), provides a critical infrastructure for tracking and characterizing objects in orbit, addressing a pressing need for space traffic management and debris monitoring. Beyond the skies, Bae tackles the nuanced challenge of cooperative dialogue in human-agent interaction. His 2023 work on real-time multimodal turn-taking prediction (4 citations) explores how artificial agents can seamlessly anticipate when to speak or act, integrating complex behavioral cues to enhance natural, fluid collaboration. This research addresses the real-time processing demands and class imbalance inherent in such systems. By combining large-scale astronomical instrumentation with the subtleties of human-machine communication, Bae demonstrates a rare versatility, advancing both the hardware that watches our skies and the software that understands our conversations.
