The lab aims to build autonomously acting AI through large language models and AI agents.

AboutAbout the lab
Toward AI that reasons with diverse knowledge and acts autonomously.
The Natural Language Processing Lab studies large language models (LLMs) and AI agents, working toward AI that reasons, plans, and acts autonomously.
It is a new lab established in April 2026, within the Faculty of Interdisciplinary Information Sciences at Tokyo University of Science.
Its main current themes are search agents and large language models that handle diverse knowledge.
Key terms
- Large Language Model (LLM)
- An AI model that learns how language is used from large amounts of text and can understand and write text
- AI Agent
- AI that thinks for itself, makes plans, and acts toward a goal
- Search Agent
- AI that autonomously repeats searching and reasoning, integrates the information it collects, and answers based on evidence
