AboutAbout the lab
Understanding human motor learning through dynamical systems
The Motor Learning Science Lab studies the control and learning of human movement using dynamical systems theory.
The lab is particularly interested in motor skills when people coordinate or compete with others through their bodies, and investigates what kinds of environments (for example, practice) lead to skill acquisition.
Its subjects include striking movements in tennis and table tennis, three-person coordination, tactical interplay in kendo, and passing in soccer.
Students can join this lab from the graduate level.
Key terms
- Dynamical systems theory
- A theory also known as dynamical systems. The lab uses it to study human motor control and learning.
- Social force model
- The lab uses it to clarify the mechanisms of coordination and cooperation among three people.

ResearchResearch themes
The lab studies human motor control and learning using dynamical systems theory. It investigates the switching of striking movements and the mechanisms of coordination and competition among two people, three people, and groups.
Regularities hidden in the switching of striking movements
The lab reveals the regularities underlying seemingly complex striking movements in tennis and table tennis as switching dynamics with time-varying external input, and proposes new learning methods based on them.
How three people coordinate
Using Hopf bifurcation theory of symmetry based on group theory and the social force model, the lab has clarified how three people coordinate and cooperate, and has proposed practice tools that improve the skill of three-person coordination.
How two people engage in tactical interplay
Using kendo as a subject, the lab has clarified the mechanisms of tactical interplay between two people.
Passing networks in soccer
The lab analyzed soccer passing from the perspective of network theory and clarified its characteristics.
