Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKevin Mathews is a research scientist with 11 years of industry and academic experience specializing in speech and language technologies, currently building low-latency, low-WER ASR systems at Cerence AI. He combines deep learning practice—conformer ASR, Transformer-based punctuation, n-gram and LSTM language models—with linguistic collaboration to deploy multilingual models for French, German, Czech and English. Earlier research at HITS and IIT Madras produced published work on figurative language (metonymy vs. metaphor) and ontology extraction, reflecting a rare mix of theoretical NLP and production engineering. Proficient in Python, Java, and C/C++, he brings hands-on experience with PyTorch, HuggingFace, OWL/RDF tools and model engineering across the research-to-product lifecycle. Based in Aachen, Kevin pairs IIT Madras training with European research fellowships and a practical track record of shipping real-world ASR datapacks.
