Keisuke Kamahori (釜堀 恵輔; he/him)

kamahori [at] uw.edu

I'm a second-year Ph.D. student at Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering, University of Washington, advised by Baris Kasikci. I'm broadly interested in computer systems and architecture, with a focus on system for LLMs recently.
I'm also working at Kotoba Technologies, building speech foundation models.
My Ph.D. study is generously supported by Toyota Riken Ph.D. Scholarship.

Prior to that, I received B. Sc. in Information Science from the University of Tokyo in 2023, advised by Shinya Takamaeda-Yamazaki. I also worked with James Larus at EPFL in the summer of 2022.
