Hiroto Kurita

I am a Ph.D. student and JSPS research fellow (DC1) at TohokuNLP group. I’m interested in efficient LM training/inference/deployment and their underlying principles.

I was previously a founding ML engineer at Kotoba Technologies, where I worked on multilingual TTS model at scale & backend works for simultaneous translation app. Also, I was a software engineer intern at Apple in Cupertino (2024 summer) and Tokyo (2025 summer), where I worked on various NLP & image generation related projects for Apple Intelligence.
