Welcome!

My name is Eunjung Yeo. I am currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at SALT Lab, in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Texas at Austin, advised by Prof. David Harwath. I received my M.A. and Ph.D. in Linguistics from Seoul National University, where I worked in the Spoken Language Processing Lab. Before that, I completed my bachelor’s degree in Korean Language and Literature, with a double major in Psychology, at Yonsei University.

I was previously a visiting scholar at ChangeLing Lab in the Language Technologies Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. David Mortensen, with whom I maintain strong research collaborations. I also collaborate closely with Prof. Julie Liss and Prof. Visar Berisha at Arizona State University.

My research focuses on computational phonetics and phonology, with a particular focus on clinical speech analysis and applications. I am passionate about proposing tools and insights that make it possible for everyone—regardless of speech or language differences—to share their messages. I believe that linguistic knowledge, combined with computational methods, can open new pathways toward inclusive communication.
