Sota Kato加藤 聡太
I am a researcher in computer vision and machine learning, currently working at K2I. I received my Ph.D. in Engineering from Meijo University. My research interests center on the challenges and applications of real-world data in deep learning across diverse domains. My past work includes image recognition in cell biology and medical imaging, as well as learning under class imbalance. More recently, I have been exploring real-time models for low-TOPS hardware and methods for leveraging knowledge from foundation models and other large-scale models.
