AboutAbout the lab
Exploring how to handle information with mathematical methods
The Mathematical Informatics Lab studies information modeling and algorithms using mathematical methods.
Using mathematical methods, the lab handles a wide range of phenomena in nature, life, and society, as well as computer-based information such as media and knowledge, and explores methods for analyzing, searching, generating, and reconstructing them.
The lab mainly studies numerical analysis and mathematical software, and is commonly known as "MMALab."
The Numerical Computation Group holds its lab seminar every Thursday, and the Mathematical Media Informatics Group holds its lab seminar every Wednesday.
Key terms
- Data collaboration analysis
- A technique for analyzing data held separately by multiple institutions together, without sharing the raw data.
- Eigenvalue decomposition
- A type of matrix computation. In this lab, it is a target for the development of massively parallel algorithms.
- Massively parallel
- A computing approach in which a large number of computations proceed at the same time. It is used in developing algorithms for supercomputers.
