Machine-translated · View original
The lab does machine learning research on learning from imperfect real-world data.

AboutAbout the lab
Toward machine learning that can learn from imperfect data.
The Kohjima Lab studies machine learning that can learn from real-world data that is insufficient in both quantity and quality.
The lab aims to expand the areas where machine learning can be effective and to improve the performance of AI systems.
This is an NTT collaborative lab. The faculty member belongs to Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation and conducts research in cooperation with Professor Minami.
For students who wish to take part, the lab would like to create opportunities to experience corporate research activities, such as internships at NTT laboratories.
Key terms
- Machine learning
- Technology that enables computers to learn from large amounts of data and automatically discover the rules and patterns hidden in it
- Transition probability
- The probability of moving from one location to another. In this lab, it is estimated from imperfect mobility data
- Regression analysis
- Analysis that captures the quantitative relationship between input variables and output variables. For example, it examines the relationship between study time and exam scores
ResearchResearch themes
This lab studies machine learning that can learn from data that is insufficient in both quantity and quality, or that comes in an imperfect form different from what is normally expected. By representing the process that generates the data with a mathematical model and deriving an algorithm for parameter estimation, the lab makes imperfect data analyzable.
*Illustrative imageLearning from imperfect mobility data
Location data can become mobility data with missing information on intermediate waypoints, because of thinning for privacy protection or areas where positioning is not possible. The lab proposed a method to estimate transition probabilities between arbitrary locations from such data, making it possible to understand human mobility trends based on the spatial structure of a city.
*Illustrative imageLearning from imperfect input-output data
When input and output information are collected by different departments or at the group level, the result is disjointed data in which the correspondence between the two is lost. The lab proposed a method to learn a regression function from such data with a deep neural network, enabling regression analysis without restrictions on the form of the true regression function.
