Ken Takeuchi, Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices1 student voices
The Takeuchi Lab studies data-centric computing, in which data processing and memory are fused as in the brain. In image and speech recognition, the lab also researches approaches that tolerate a certain amount of error in order to achieve fast processing and a substantial reduction in power consumption. The goal is to realize computers that can process and store, in real time, huge volumes of data that change moment by moment. The lab trains people who can "Co-design" across fields, from LSI hardware to control software, machine learning, and applications.

Kenjiro Taura, Professor
Software & Computing1 student voices
Taura Lab researches parallel processing, distributed processing, system software, and programming languages. Its main focus is software that makes it easy to write parallel programs that run at a high level of performance. The lab aims to bring the power of high-performance parallel computers to researchers in a wider range of fields.

Hiroshi Esaki, Professor
Communications & Networks1 student voices
The Esaki-Ochiai Lab is a networking lab at the University of Tokyo. The lab conducts broad research, from network architecture and backbones to sensors and mobile, and on to smart city practice and security that make use of them. The lab studies both the foundational and applied technologies of the next-generation Internet, aiming to produce practical technologies by actually developing and operating them. The lab contributes to many projects, including the WIDE Project, and also takes part in operating the networks for events such as Interop Tokyo and IETF meetings.

Hidetsugu Irie, Professor
Software & Computing1 student voices
The Irie-Kadomoto Lab researches computer systems and their applications, working to build the future of the information society. The lab works on realizing more powerful computers, as well as lighter and more flexible ones. It also studies user-support services that are possible precisely because of these new kinds of computers. A representative research topic is STRAIGHT, a processor architecture that originated in the lab.

Hitoshi Iba, Professor
AI & Machine Learning1 student voices
The Iba Lab studies computation and systems built around two keywords: "evolution" and "the emergence of intelligence." From methods for solving optimization problems to learning and inference in artificial intelligence, the lab aims at "problem solving that learns from nature." The lab combines metaheuristics, such as evolutionary computation and swarm intelligence, with machine learning, deep learning, and large language models. The lab also conducts research on complex systems and artificial life, as well as practical research on AI education.

Makoto Ikeda, Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices1 student voices
Ikeda Lab studies the design and evaluation of new high-performance cryptographic hardware using VLSI design techniques. The lab aims to put high-performance cryptography, such as post-quantum cryptography and homomorphic encryption, into practical use as hardware that runs it securely and quickly. It also works on evaluating the security of cryptographic hardware, for example whether secret information leaks when the hardware is attacked. The lab also studies technology that automatically generates hardware from programs written in Python or C/C++, as well as image sensors.

Kanta Matsuura, Professor
Software & Computing0 student voices
Matsuura Lab studies information security. Its goal is to contribute, from a scientific standpoint, to building the mechanisms of a society where everyone can exchange information comfortably. The lab is a group of experts who study anything related to information security, from cryptography and networks to economics.

Takeshi Naemura, Professor
0 student voices
Naemura Lab studies information media that bring richness to people's minds. Working mainly in the fields of human interface and virtual reality, the lab builds on optical design, circuit implementation, machine learning, and dialogue design that encourages people to act. Beyond developing theories and implementing systems, the lab evaluates the new experiences these systems create for people through psychological experiments, and connects them to artistic expression. In addition to publishing papers, the lab also puts effort into demo exhibitions in Japan and abroad, including exhibitions for the general public.

Atsutake Kosuge, Associate Professor
Semiconductors & Electronic Devices0 student voices
The Kosuge Lab researches next-generation 3D chip integration technology and low-power circuit design technology for AI processing. While AI enriches society, it requires enormous computing resources, and rising power consumption has become a challenge. To solve this problem, the lab develops hardwired-logic processors modeled on the human cerebrum, as well as 3D packaging technology that stacks chips. The lab also uses AI in chip packaging technology, software, and semiconductor design, pursuing the full potential of semiconductors.
