About
Research Profile
Dongjae Kim is a Researcher in Market Simulation and LLM Agents at Pukyong National University, South Korea. His research examines how emerging technologies reshape consumer behavior, market demand, and innovation trajectories.
His current work connects behavioral market modeling, technology trajectory analysis, and LLM-based agent simulation to better understand emerging technology markets.
Research Interests
- Technology trajectories: identifying how technologies evolve and converge using patent, text, and network-based methods.
- Consumer behavior and demand: modeling how people interpret, evaluate, and adopt emerging technologies.
- LLM-based agent simulation: using persona-based agents to simulate decision-making under emerging market scenarios.
Current Focus
I am currently focusing on LLM-based simulation of consumer decision-making, with particular interest in how behavioral theories can be integrated into synthetic agents.
