Yasutaka Shimizu, Professor
1 student voices
Shimizu Lab studies problems in finance and insurance using the theory of stochastic processes and statistical analysis. The lab models data that move randomly, such as stock prices, as stochastic processes and mathematically investigates how they work. It also works on statistical methods for estimating future risk from past data, and on calculating the ruin risk of insurance companies. In recent years, it has also put particular effort into developing SEM, a new model for predicting lifespans and mortality rates.
Kenichi Maruno, Professor
1 student voices
The Maruno Lab focuses on nonlinear waves and applied integrable systems. The lab uses mathematics to theoretically analyze complex natural phenomena such as water waves. It also develops numerical computation and simulation techniques for solving nonlinear mathematical models. The lab also hosts lectures and seminars with researchers invited from abroad.
Tsuyoshi Miezaki, Professor
1 student voices
The Saegusaki Lab studies discrete mathematics using algebraic methods. The lab uses algebra to investigate the properties of discrete structures such as those in coding theory, graph theory, and design theory. It also works on finding invariants that completely characterize the properties of graphs and matroids (structures that generalize graphs).
Tetsuya Sakai, Professor
1 student voices
The Sakai Lab mainly studies information retrieval and information access, as well as natural language processing. The lab also works on how search engines operate and on the interaction between people and computers. The lab also places importance on the perspective of social good, applying research results to benefit society.
Kazue Sako, Professor
1 student voices
Sako Lab researches security and privacy technologies to build a safe and secure IT society. Using technologies such as cryptographic protocols and blockchain, the lab explores how to design systems that are easy to use and trustworthy. The lab also works on self-sovereign identity infrastructure, which lets people use their own data for their own benefit.
Kana Shimizu, Professor
1 student voices
Shimizu Lab conducts research that uses computers to analyze biological information such as genomes and to clarify how life works. In recent years, the performance of DNA sequencers, the devices that read DNA sequences, has improved, and the volume of biological data keeps growing explosively. The lab develops new information science techniques for handling this enormous amount of data. The lab also works on privacy-protection technologies for securely analyzing genomes, which are themselves personal information.
Kumiko Tanaka-Ishii-Ishii, Professor
1 student voices
The Tanaka-Ishii Lab uses complex systems theory to study the mathematical properties of natural language. From the perspectives of fractals and chaos, the lab examines the relationship between linguistic structures such as words and grammar and the large-scale regularities seen across language as a whole. The lab builds mathematical models of language that reproduce these findings, and also applies them to natural language processing. Language shares properties with other large-scale social systems such as finance, law, and communication networks, and the lab is also exploring new ways to understand these systems using text and computation.
Tatsuo Nakajima, Professor
1 student voices
Nakajima Lab (DCL) explores unprecedented ways of using computers and researches information technology that enriches people's lives. The lab develops new ways for people to interact with the real world through computers, using augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). It also conducts research on "happiness technology," which uses methods such as gamification to improve quality of life and satisfaction. The lab also works on dependable software and scalable distributed systems.
Hayato Yamana, Professor
1 student voices
Yamana Lab researches how to turn the abundant data around us, such as social media posts and images, into technologies that benefit society. User-created content (UCC) is growing explosively, and there are high expectations for personalized services that make use of it. The lab covers a wide range of areas, from high-speed data processing, mining algorithms, and user interfaces to the security needed when handling data. It also researches ways to use data while protecting privacy, such as technology for computing on data while it remains encrypted.
Shigeru Shimamoto, Professor
1 student voices
The Shimamoto Lab studies next-generation wireless communications using satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles (drones). The lab studies communication methods that connect terrestrial networks with geostationary satellites, low Earth orbit satellites, and HAPS (high altitude platform stations in the stratosphere). It also works on wireless communication between aircraft and with the ground, and on technologies for connecting many base stations at the same time.
