Dr. Yoonsuk Choi
Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)
Faculty Advisor of the Student Research Organization, Orbital Labs
Brief Bio/Profile
Dr. Yoonsuk Choi joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in Fall 2014. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas with specialization in Computer Engineering, and Bachelor's and Master's degrees from Korea University, Seoul, South Korea. Dr. Choi specializes in a novel multimodal image fusion method which has various applications that are contributable to many aspects of human life, such as urban mapping, target detection, concealed weapon identification, natural disaster monitoring, security, surveillance, and early detection of medical symptoms like cancer. Prior to his doctoral studies, Dr. Choi was a research engineer/scientist in the nanotechnology and semiconductor fields with LIG Nex1 in South Korea, Korea Institute of Science and Technology, Inter-University Semiconductor Research Center of Seoul National University, and the University of Seoul Institute of Quantum Information Processing and Systems. He conducted abundant research on Nano-devices such as Nano-wire Transistor, Single Electron Transistor, Nano-In-Plane-Gate Transistor, and Quantum Dot Transistor. His current research interests include multimodal data fusion and compression, hyperspectral image fusion and analysis, remote sensing and target detection, and object recognition. Since joining CSUF, Dr. Choi has taught various Electrical and Computer Engineering courses from the undergraduate level to the graduate level. He currently serves as a faculty advisor for the student research organization, Orbital Labs, whose objective is to build a high-altitude platform for microgravity research and experiments.
