Ishikawa Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A computer vision lab that enables computers to recognize and understand images.

AboutAbout the lab
Giving machines human-like vision
The Ishikawa Lab studies computer vision and pattern analysis.
It develops algorithms that allow computers to recognize and understand scenes from images.
Using methods such as probabilistic models and graph-based optimization, the lab approaches the mechanisms of recognition mathematically.
The lab also works on applications to medical image processing.
Key terms

ResearchResearch themes
The Ishikawa Lab works on computer vision and pattern analysis, which enable computers to recognize and understand images. Its research is based on theoretical and mathematical methods, such as probabilistic models and graph-based optimization.
*Illustrative imageComputer Vision
This research aims to give robots and computers human-like eyes. An image is merely data in which colors are arranged, and getting a computer to read meaning from it is not easy.
*Illustrative imagePattern Analysis
To find patterns in images, the lab builds probabilistic models and performs optimization using graphs. It is also an approachable theme for those who like theory and mathematics.
*Illustrative imageApplications to Medicine and Devices
The lab studies the analysis of medical images such as CT and MRI to support diagnosis. Vision technology is also used in everyday devices such as digital cameras.
MembersFaculty
