I am Prof. Dr. Thanaruk Theeramunkong, a professor and research faculty member in Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing at the Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology (SIIT), Thammasat University. I am also a member of the Royal Society of Thailand in the Information Technology Division.

With over 30 years of academic and research experience, my work focuses on natural language processing, data mining, information retrieval, and knowledge discovery. I have published more than 58 international journal articles, delivered over 20 keynote speeches, and received several national and international research awards.

I currently serve as the Senior President of the Artificial Intelligence Association of Thailand (AIAT) and lead the Super AI Engineer Development Program, a national initiative to develop skilled AI professionals. I have also led impactful research on using AI to assess public health behavior during COVID-19, with findings published in top-tier journals such as PLOS ONE.

I hold bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in engineering from Tokyo Institute of Technology. I have held research and leadership roles in institutions such as JAIST, NECTEC, and NSTDA, and served on the steering committees of major AI conferences including PRICAI, PAKDD, and KICSS.

My mission is to advance AI research and apply it for national development, with a strong emphasis on education, innovation, and public benefit.
