The lab studies how to make use of distributed data through wireless networks and spatiotemporal statistics.

AboutAbout the lab
Next-generation wireless and statistics that put distributed data to use
The Sato Lab conducts research from the perspectives of wireless communications, spatiotemporal statistics, and distributed processing, looking ahead to a next-generation society in which the use of vast amounts of distributed data becomes essential infrastructure.
The lab's keywords include wireless networks, Beyond 5G/6G, sensing, spatiotemporal statistics, distributed machine learning, Gaussian processes, and Bayesian optimization.
The lab's news section lists papers and presentations on building radio maps and on designing wireless base stations using Bayesian optimization.
Key terms
- Gaussian process
- A statistical method that estimates the values at unobserved points from observed data, together with a range showing the uncertainty
- Bayesian optimization
- A method that chooses the next conditions to try based on the results so far, in order to find good settings with few trials
- Distributed machine learning
- A method of performing machine learning by dividing data and computation across multiple terminals or devices
