The lab studies directional statistics, a branch of statistics for data that include directions.

AboutAbout the lab
Building flexible models for directional data.
Miyata Lab's research fields are directional statistics in statistical science and Bayesian statistics in foundations of mathematics and applied mathematics.
Its research topic is constructing flexible models for multivariate data that include directions.
In Bayesian statistics, the lab also works on asymptotic expansions.
Associate Professor Yoichi Miyata joined the Faculty of Interdisciplinary Informatics at Tokyo University of Science in April 2026.
