The lab uses econometrics and machine learning to uncover the relationships behind data.
AboutAbout the lab
God dwells in data.
The Kawasaki Lab studies a wide range of topics in agricultural economics, including production, the environment, trade, and development.
Although the topics are diverse, the lab's analytical approach is consistent: it aims to deliver its messages through numbers.
The lab builds up, one by one, the numbers that form the basis of objective evidence, which matters when opinions are divided over specific measures.
Students choose their own research topics freely and discuss them actively in the lab seminar, which undergraduate thesis students and graduate students attend (students from other labs also join the graduate lab seminar).
Key terms
- Econometrics
- A field that analyzes economic data with statistical methods and verifies relationships such as cause and effect using numbers.
- Machine learning
- A technology that has computers learn rules and patterns from large amounts of data and uses them for prediction and classification.
- Simulation analysis
- An analysis that expresses people's behavior and other phenomena in mathematical equations, runs them on a computer, and examines the results.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab conducts research using econometrics and machine learning, which reveal relationships hidden behind data, and simulation analysis, which expresses people's behavior mathematically. The topics it has covered so far are wide-ranging, spanning production, the environment, trade, and development.
