Seth Seokhee Han
Dartmouth College '29+2
Hi! I’m Seth (석희), a rising sophomore at Dartmouth and a Presidential Science Scholar of South Korea.
I’m interested in redefining computer vision problems to better align with practical needs and designing robust decision-making systems grounded in inductive biases. I want my inventions to be intuitive and universal enough that anyone in the field can apply them with minimal changes to what’s already there.
Before college, I co-founded Drice and led development of a patented and published AI-powered drone system for real-time black ice detection. I also worked for Enuma, an edtech startup developing AI-driven learning solutions for children with special needs. During my time at Dartmouth, I had the opportunity to work with Prof. Peter Chin (Dartmouth College) and Prof. Seokhyun Chung (Korea University).
In my free time, I cook (mostly Korean 🇰🇷), play rock drums, and make films. I’m currently out of school for my military service in the Republic of Korea Army.
