Takahiro Kinouchi

AI / ML Engineer

Hi, I'm Takahiro Kinouchi (@kittchy). I work as an AI/ML engineer.

At university I researched speech recognition. Since then I've built natural language processing, image processing, recommendation, and image search systems.

I play the drums, and I like walking around cities I don't know.
