Hello! I am Takeshi Onishi, a Research Scientist at Toyota Central R&D Labs., Inc., specializing in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Research Scientist at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where I conducted research in medical NLP. Earlier in my career, I worked at Toyota's Frontier Research Center, bridging advanced AI research with practical industry applications, including a visiting scholarship with Professor James Caverlee at Texas A&M University. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago in 2020, under the supervision of David McAllester, and hold a B.A. in Engineering from the Toyota Technological Institute in Japan.
