About the Lab
Professor Jaehong Jeong's research lab specializes in statistical modeling and data science for complex, large-scale environmental and geospatial systems, with a strong focus on spherical and spatial statistics. The lab develops advanced covariance models and stochastic generators to accurately represent global climate and wind energy data on the sphere, addressing challenges related to geometric distortion and computational efficiency. A key emphasis is on creating physically realistic, non-Gaussian models—such as trans-Gaussian and evolutionary spectrum approaches—for uncertainty quantification in climate simulations and renewable energy applications. The lab also explores self-supervised learning techniques to reduce labeling burdens in machine learning, particularly for voice spoofing detection.

15Statistical models used in geophysical, environmental, and climate science applications must reflect the curvature of the spatial domain in global data. Over the past few decades, statisticians have developed covariance models that capture the spatial and temporal behavior of these global data sets. Though the geodesic distance is the most natural metric for measuring distance on the surface of a sphere, mathematical limitations have compelled statisticians to use the chordal distance to compute
Wind has the potential to make a significant contribution to future energy resources. Locating the sources of this renewable energy on a global scale is however extremely challenging, given the difficulty to store very large data sets generated by modern computer models. We propose a statistical model that aims at reproducing the data-generating mechanism of an ensemble of runs via a Stochastic Generator (SG) of global annual wind data. We introduce an evolutionary spectrum approach with spatial
There is a growing interest in developing covariance functions for processes on the surface of a sphere because of the wide availability of data on the globe. Utilizing the one‐to‐one mapping between the Euclidean distance and the great circle distance, isotropic and positive definite functions in a Euclidean space can be used as covariance functions on the surface of a sphere. This approach, however, may result in physically unrealistic distortion on the sphere especially for large distances. W
Quantifying the uncertainty of wind energy potential from climate models is a time-consuming task and requires considerable computational resources. A statistical model trained on a small set of runs can act as a stochastic approximation of the original climate model, and can assess the uncertainty considerably faster than by resorting to the original climate model for additional runs. While Gaussian models have been widely employed as means to approximate climate simulations, the Gaussianity as
This study aims to improve the performance of voice spoofing attack detection through self-supervised pre-training. Supervised learning needs appropriate input variables and corresponding labels for constructing the machine learning models that are to be applied. It is necessary to secure a large number of labeled datasets to improve the performance of supervised learning processes. However, labeling requires substantial inputs of time and effort. One of the methods for managing this requirement
This study examines the impact of incorporating cryptocurrencies into global asset portfolios using ensemble approaches and a tracing strategy. We considered cryptocurrency ratios of 1%, 3%, and 5% for including cryptocurrencies. Benchmarking was performed using classical portfolio optimization strategies such as minimum variance portfolio (MVP), maximum diversification portfolio (MDP), equal risk contribution portfolio (ERCP), and hierarchical risk parity (HRP). The ensemble methods and tracing
Hepatitis A is a water-borne infectious disease that frequently occurs in unsanitary environments. However, paradoxically, those who have spent their infancy in a sanitary environment are more susceptible to hepatitis A because they do not have the opportunity to acquire natural immunity. In Korea, hepatitis A is prevalent because of the distribution of uncooked seafood, especially during hot and humid summers. In general, the transmission of hepatitis A is known to be dynamically affected by so

일차성 인공 고관절 전치환술 후 고관절 탈구에 영향을 미치는 위험 요인에 대해 알아보고자 한다 대상 및 방법: 일차성 인공 고관절 전치환술을 시행 받았던 482예 중 수술 후 발생한 고관절 탈구 19예 를 대상으로 하였다. 또한 나이, 체중, 성별, 원인질환이 비슷하였고 동일한 형태의 인공 삽입물을 사용 하였던 19예를 대조군으로 설정하였다. 탈구 후 최소 2년 이상 추시하였으며, 탈구에 미치는 위험 요인 을 측정하기 위해 임상적 요인과 기계적 요인들을 조사하였다. 결과: 고관절 탈구는 총 482예 중 19예(3.9%)에서 발생하였다. 탈구군의 평균 연령은 57.1세이었고, 탈구가 없었던 전체 환자의 평균 연령은 50.8세(20∼79세)로서 탈구군에서 높게 나타났고 통계학적으로 도 유의성이 있었다(p<0.05). 탈구군과 대조군의 비교에서 비구컵의 평균 전염각은 탈구군이 19.8도, 대조군이 22.1도로 탈구군에서 작게 나타났으나 두 군간에 통계학적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다.
As the risk posed by climate change becomes increasingly evident, countries across the world are constantly seeking alternative energy sources. Wind energy has substantial potential for future energy portfolios without having negative impacts on the environment. In developing nationwide and worldwide energy plans, understanding the spatio-temporal pattern of wind is crucial. We analyze wind vectors in the region of East Asia from the fifth-generation ECMWF atmospheric reanalysis. To model the wi
