The lab works on automating software development and on software repository mining.

AboutAbout the lab
Automating the development process, and mining software repositories.
The Software Engineering Lab conducts research on automating the software development process and on software repository mining.
The lab covers a wide range of high-profile topics in the software field and actively collaborates with researchers overseas.
SE for AI and AI for SE, which deal with the relationship between AI and software engineering, are also among its research topics.
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "POSL" and is also called the Kamei Lab.
Key terms
- Software repository mining
- Research that analyzes the data in repositories, the storage places where development history and other records are kept
- Empirical software engineering
- A field that collects and analyzes real development data to study software development empirically
- SE for AI and AI for SE
- SE for AI applies software engineering to the development of AI, while AI for SE uses AI in software development
