A lab that improves system safety through a desirable relationship between humans and machines.

AboutAbout the lab
Aiming for a desirable relationship between humans and machines
The Takahashi-Karikawa Lab studies how to improve the safety of large, complex systems in which humans play the main role in ensuring safety.
Targeting aviation systems and nuclear power plants, it works to improve safety from the perspectives of human cognitive models and behavioral economics.
It also develops technology to estimate a person's state from biological information such as visual information, heart rate variability, and brain activity.
It studies the social acceptance of advanced technologies such as AI and nuclear power from the standpoint of subjective risk perception.
Key terms
- Behavioral economics
- A field of economics that explains actual decision-making by taking into account human psychology and behavioral tendencies.
- Heart rate variability
- The phenomenon in which the intervals between heartbeats fluctuate from moment to moment.
- Social acceptance
- Whether people in society accept a new technology or facility.
- Safety-II
- An approach that increases safety by increasing successes, focusing not only on failures but also on the factors behind cases that went well.
ResearchResearch themes
The Takahashi-Karikawa Lab conducts practical research on improving the safety of large, complex systems in which humans play the main role in ensuring safety. Its research is organized into three research groups: aviation, human-machine cooperation, and cognition.
