Yusuke Uchida is a Tokyo-based technology leader and General Manager with nine years of industry experience and a PhD in Information Science and Technology from the University of Tokyo. He blends hands-on machine learning research—especially in deep learning for image recognition, image retrieval, and approximate nearest neighbor search—with product and organizational leadership across Mobility Technologies and DeNA. His open-source work includes notable Keras projects such as a Noise2Noise implementation and real-time age/gender estimation demos, demonstrating both reproducible research and practical deployment skills. Earlier research at KDDI R&D and a visiting fellowship at SRI International reflect a strong background in computer vision and multimedia retrieval. Colleagues value his ability to translate cutting-edge research into production features and demos that drive real user value. He often pairs academic rigor with pragmatic engineering, shipping experiments that evolve into product-ready systems.

yu4u/age-gender-estimation

Apr 2017 - Aug 2020

Keras implementation of a CNN network for age and gender estimation
Role in this project:
userML Engineer & Data Scientist
Contributions:1 release, 172 commits, 25 PRs in 3 years 4 months
Contributions summary:Yusuke's contributions centered around the development and utilization of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for age and gender estimation. They implemented and integrated a pretrained model, optimized its parameters, and also created a demo that utilized the developed model for face detection and age/gender prediction in real-time. The user demonstrated skills in data preparation, model evaluation, and integration of a machine learning solution within a practical application.

yu4u/noise2noise

Jul 2018 - Mar 2019

An unofficial and partial Keras implementation of "Noise2Noise: Learning Image Restoration without Clean Data"
Role in this project:
userML Engineer
Contributions:1 release, 55 commits, 14 PRs in 8 months
Contributions summary:Yusuke contributed significantly to the Noise2Noise project, implementing and modifying key components for training and testing a denoising model. They focused on the core aspects of the project, including model architecture, loss functions, and data generators, as well as incorporating new features like different noise models and model architectures (U-Net). They also addressed bug fixes and improved the overall training process.
