The Social Media Lab aims to build an information environment in which all kinds of useful information from around the world can be shared and used. This has been a great dream of researchers in databases and information retrieval for decades. With the development of computers and the Internet, it is gradually ceasing to be a mere fantasy. As the underlying technologies, the lab studies techniques for collecting, analyzing, and extracting a wide variety of information, and techniques for flexibly searching it.

The Agreement Informatics Lab focuses on collective intelligence in which people and computers or AI agents reach agreement and cooperate with one another. By having people reach agreement and cooperate with AI agents that have become highly accurate, the lab aims to bring out an unprecedented collective intelligence and realize new social systems. The lab pursues both theoretical research that aims at lofty ideals and the commercialization of that research as business.

The Computer Algorithms Lab (Minato Lab) studies the design and analysis of algorithms, which are the foundation of all information processing technology. Merely by refining an algorithm, computation time can sometimes be cut by tens or even hundreds of times. The lab applies algorithmic techniques for handling "discrete structures" such as sets, logic, graphs, and combinations to various fields, including artificial intelligence and knowledge processing.

The Computer Architecture Lab studies the principles and technologies for designing the fundamental structure of computers and performing computation efficiently. To realize computation based on new principles, such as quantum computation, as an actual working computer, new architectures are needed. The lab explores design principles for next-generation computers, represented by quantum computers, aiming to realize innovative computing platforms and to deepen quantum information science.

The Computer Software Lab focuses on programming languages, studying the theory and applications for building efficient and reliable software. The lab works on the theory and applications of program verification techniques based on mathematical logic, such as type theory and model checking. Drawing on the ideas of functional programming and object-oriented programming, the lab also designs and develops programming languages that allow highly abstract descriptions.

The Advanced Network Lab (Okabe Lab) is a cooperating chair of the Academic Center for Computing and Media Studies and accepts students from the Communication and Information Systems Course. The lab studies networking and security, including support for responding to cyberattacks, roaming and privacy on public wireless LANs, and the secure operation of IoT devices.

The Functional Materials Design Lab designs and synthesizes metal oxides to pioneer inorganic materials with new functions. Oxides are widely used in everyday life as dielectrics, magnetic materials, electrical conductors, and optically functional materials. Solid-state reactions at high temperature yield only thermodynamically stable substances, but combining synthesis techniques that use the gas or liquid phase makes it possible to reach substances that have never existed before. By adding a nanoscience perspective to diverse synthesis methods, the lab aims to create metastable and nonequilibrium materials, as well as functions based on entirely new mechanisms.

The Inorganic Structural Chemistry Lab uses the interaction between femtosecond pulsed lasers and matter to modify the interior of glass and diamond and add new functions. At the focus of a laser, extreme environments arise, such as strong electric fields and steep temperature gradients, and the lab investigates from the fundamentals what happens there. The lab also works on a new forming process for single-crystal materials using direct electric current heating, and on clarifying the mechanisms behind the thermal properties of glass materials. In addition to synthesis, processing, electron microscopy, and optical characterization, the lab uses first-principles calculations and molecular dynamics calculations together, leading to the development of processing methods and improved material functions.

The Applied Solid State Chemistry Lab studies how electrons behave in inorganic solids such as metal oxides and nitrides, and what physical properties emerge as a result. Its main targets are oxides of strongly correlated electron systems, in which charge, spin, and orbital degrees of freedom are coupled, and metals and nitrides in which quasiparticles of delocalized electron systems play a role. Metal oxides are basically ionic, with covalent character added, and transition elements can take several oxidation states, which gives rise to a wide variety of physical properties. The lab aims to clarify the phenomena that appear there and to develop new functional materials.
