Hiroto Yamamoto commenced his academic journey with a master’s in Fishery Science from the Graduate School of Kindai University, and he is now a doctoral candidate at the Graduate School of Frontier Sciences at The University of Tokyo. His early academic pursuits centered on fisheries, aquatic biology and non-invasive measurement technologies. As a continuing PhD student, he has already authored peer-reviewed research such as a study on estimating the length of the whale shark (*Rhincodon typus) using a multi-stereo-image measurement method. According to available scholarly profiling data, his h-index stands at approximately 2, with predicted citation counts in the high tens and a publication count of around seven. His contributions reflect a growing research focus on advanced imaging techniques, fishery resource assessment and large marine animal measurement protocols. While still in the early career phase, he has begun influencing the intersection of fisheries science and imaging technology. His recognition in academic circles is nascent yet promising, and his future work is expected to bolster precision measurement in marine biology and contribute to sustainable fishery management. With this trajectory, his legacy may arise through the adoption of imaging-based fishery monitoring systems and interdisciplinary collaborations.
