6th Korean Artificial Intelligence Conference Successfully Held Under the Theme of "Collaborative Intelligence"
The 6th Korean Artificial Intelligence Conference, hosted by the Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences, was successfully held from September 24 to 27 at the Seogwipo KAL Hotel. Organized around the theme "Collaborative Intelligence: Human-AI Synergy in the Real World," the conference established itself as a premier academic forum for sharing the latest research advances and practical applications in the field of artificial intelligence.
The conference featured presentations of diverse research findings through both a general paper track and an undergraduate paper competition. Among the highlights was the "CyberCop C.O.P" special session, which drew considerable attention for its focus on the convergence of artificial intelligence and data forensics.
Special Session Charts New Possibilities at the Intersection of Data Forensics and AI
The "CyberCop C.O.P" special session was held on Thursday, September 25, in two back-to-back slots from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. and 4:30 to 5:30 p.m., with academic discussions spanning a total of 11 topics. The session was organized as an opportunity to share interim research findings from the ongoing "Integrated Analysis and Inference System for Cybercrime Investigation Leads" project — commissioned by the Korean National Police Agency and led by Hallym University.
The special session brought together experts from leading universities, research institutes, and companies, including Korea University, Hallym University, Sungkyunkwan University, Soongsil University, Yonsei University, the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Sejong University, the Korea Electronics Technology Institute (KETI), and UniSoul Friends Co., Ltd. Participants presented progress on the ongoing national R&D project and discussed research directions for applying AI technologies in the field of data forensics.
UniSoul Friends Co., Ltd. Draws Attention with Hierarchical Person Inference Technology
As a contracted participant in the national R&D project, UniSoul Friends Co., Ltd. attracted significant interest at the special session with a presentation on its research to date, titled "A Study on Hierarchical Person Inference Using Unsupervised Graph Neural Networks." The research proposes a methodology for effectively tracking and analyzing the fragmented digital traces left by suspects in the course of criminal investigations.
The technology developed by UniSoul Friends' research team employs graph neural networks and unsupervised learning techniques to systematically analyze dispersed information that conventional investigative methods would struggle to connect — enabling the inference of hidden relationships and hierarchical structures among individuals. The technology is expected to yield critical leads in investigations involving complex organized crime and cybercrime.
Contributing to the Academic Community Through Data Science Expertise
Through its operational support of the special session, UniSoul Friends Co., Ltd. deepened its collaboration with KDaFoS and took an active part in academic discussions, drawing on its expertise in data science. The company continues to contribute to the strengthening of social safety through the development of diverse solutions utilizing AI and data analytics technologies.
A representative of UniSoul Friends Co., Ltd. noted, "The convergence of artificial intelligence and data forensics is a transformative technology that will reshape the paradigm of public safety and criminal investigation." They added, "We are confident that this special session will energize the exchange of knowledge between academics and practitioners, and that this will in turn yield more advanced research outcomes."
The representative further stated, "Going forward, we plan to continue strengthening our cybercrime response capabilities through sustained R&D, and to sharpen our focus on developing practical technologies in close collaboration with the academic community."
A New Milestone in Convergence Research on Artificial Intelligence and Data Forensics
The "CyberCop C.O.P" special session served as a compelling demonstration of how convergence research combining AI technology and data forensics can contribute to solving real-world societal challenges. The presentations — grounded in the concrete operational needs of the Korean National Police Agency — were recognized for their dual value: academic rigor and practical applicability.
A representative of KDaFoS remarked, "This special session offered a vivid glimpse of the transformative changes that advances in AI technology will bring to the fields of cybercrime investigation and digital forensics." They continued, "We will continue to support convergence research of this kind and remain committed to contributing to the enhancement of the nation's cybersecurity capabilities."
The 6th Korean Artificial Intelligence Conference was broadly recognized as a meaningful event for charting the future direction of AI research in South Korea, presenting diverse research achievements across a wide range of fields in addition to the featured special session.
