AboutAbout the lab
Measuring the real world to understand behavior and knowledge
The lab of Associate Professor Masaya Okada conducts data science research related to behavior and knowledge.
The lab is interested in measuring every kind of information related to the human body, the environment, and intelligence, taking it in as computing resources, and understanding its meaning so that it can be put to use.
Centered on ubiquitous multimodal sensing technology, the lab conducts research that measures behavior and knowledge from an engineering perspective and understands them scientifically.
For students of the School of Interdisciplinary Science and Innovation, the lab hopes they will develop the ability to grasp human and social problems from data, create new products and experiences, and solve real-world challenges.
Key terms
- Multimodal Sensing
- A technology that combines multiple types of sensors to simultaneously measure various kinds of information about people and the environment
- Real-World Learning
- Learning in which people autonomously acquire knowledge by experiencing the real world, without being taught
- Learning Analytics
- An effort to analyze data obtained during the learning process in order to understand how learning is progressing
ResearchResearch themes
The lab's research theme is the creation of "an academic field based on real-world-oriented data science." Centered on ubiquitous multimodal sensing technology, the lab measures behavior and knowledge from an engineering perspective and studies them to understand them scientifically.
