I’m Masataka Kashiwagi , also known as asteriam.

My specialty:

  • MLOps (Operation and improvement of machine learning systems, various automations, and planning)
  • Machine Learning Systems (e.g. Recommendation System, Fraud Detection System etc…)
  • Project Management

I’m responsible for product growth using machine learning, and also working on improving the user experience through machine learning.

I’m interested in multimodal learning and in consumer behavior model in life events.
