Masatoshi Okutomi, Project Professor
0 student voices
The Okutomi-Monno Lab studies how to process images captured by cameras and sensors to extract information such as 3D shape and motion. The lab handles a wide variety of images, including street scenes captured by vehicle-mounted cameras, medical images from endoscopes and MRI, and images from polarization cameras. The lab also works on image restoration and recognition using deep learning. Although the lab's website is separate from the Tanaka Lab's, the two labs continue to be run in cooperation as before.

Masayuki Tanaka, Professor
0 student voices
The Tanaka Lab studies image processing, computer vision, and deep learning. The lab works on both the processing stage in which a camera forms an image and recognition techniques that find and track the people and objects in it. Some of its research uses light information beyond the three colors of red, green, and blue, such as polarization and hyperspectral images. The lab also pursues research that improves the training methods of deep learning models themselves.

Takayuki Ishizaki, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Ishizaki Lab studies, from a mathematical perspective, the energy and information and communication infrastructure systems that will support future society. It focuses in particular on next-generation power systems (smart grids) that make the most of renewable energy, and on next-generation information and communication networks. The lab values an approach it calls “mathematics grounded in practice”: building mathematics from real-world problems, then applying that mathematics back to the design of real systems. The lab invites anyone to feel free to get in touch about lab visits and admissions consultations.

Tomohisa Hayakawa, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Hayakawa Lab (DSL) studies the modeling and control of dynamical systems, which describe nonlinear phenomena that appear in the real world. Its subjects range widely: machines such as hard disks and bipedal robots, living systems such as automated anesthesia control for humans, finance, and multi-agent systems. Using tools from mathematics and information theory, the lab aims to discover the principles and laws behind systems and to present new ways of thinking about how to control them. Student research in fiscal 2025 includes vehicle dispatch for on-demand transportation, mixed passenger-and-freight transport that carries people and cargo in the same vehicle, and the dynamics of epileptic seizures.

Kenji Amaya, Professor
0 student voices
The Amaya Lab studies a wide range of engineering problems, centered on inverse problems and electrochemical simulation. X-ray CT is often cited as a successful example of an inverse problem: it reconstructs images of cross-sections of the body from information measured outside the body. The lab works on medical imaging, inspection of optical devices, monitoring of corrosion in marine facilities, automotive painting, and diagnosis of cracks in structures. Some of its research is carried out in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University, and some in cooperation with companies.

Yusuke Miyazaki, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Miyazaki Lab studies "human modeling": measuring human structure, motion, sensation, and sensibility, and turning them into computer models. Its approach is centered on methods from mechanical and systems engineering, combined with methods from medicine and informatics. The human models are used to evaluate the relationships among people, objects, and environments, extending into research on designing safe and comfortable products, environments, and services. Current work covers injury biomechanics, which investigates how injuries occur, as well as sports engineering, biomechanics of daily activities, and Kansei engineering.

Hidenori Kosaka, Professor
0 student voices
The Kosaka Lab studies the complex combustion phenomena that occur inside engines. Based on that understanding, it aims to realize engines that are highly efficient and have a low environmental impact. Its research fields are engines, combustion engineering, and laser measurement.

Masaki Yamakita, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Yamakita Lab conducts research on controlling the motion of robots and other systems, based on control engineering. It covers a broad range, from expressing a system as a mathematical model to actually controlling it. The lab builds and tests real hardware: robots that perform horizontal-bar routines, a motorcycle that does not fall over even when stopped, and a robot that walks on two legs. It also studies components such as artificial muscles made from soft materials that bend with electricity.
