Mahfuzul Islam, Associate Professor
1 student voices
Islam Lab studies low-power circuits and next-generation computing technology. The lab aims to realize electronic systems that are both energy-efficient and high-performance, for IoT devices and edge devices. Its scope ranges from power supply circuits essential to smartphones and PCs, to mixed analog-digital circuits, to new computing approaches such as computing-in-memory. A newly started lab, it welcomes visits and consultations.
Masato Motomura, Professor
1 student voices
The Motomura-Fujiki Lab researches information processing architectures and hardware for AI workloads. The two labs work together as the AI Computing Research Unit (ArtIC), launched in April 2019. The labs approach problems from both the software and hardware sides, and value coming up with ideas different from others, not just improving performance numbers. The Motomura Lab is not accepting new students; students who wish to join ArtIC are advised to apply to the Fujiki Lab.
Momoko Nakatani, Professor
1 student voices
The Nakatani Lab studies methodologies for creating services through "co-creation" and "dialogue," as well as the design of the information and communication technology that supports them. The lab goes out to a variety of real-world settings to explore the underlying issues, and takes the process of developing solutions itself as an object of study. Currently it focuses particularly on care, such as childcare, parenting, and elder care, and works on issues such as relieving social isolation. Those who wish to join the lab or go on to its graduate program are expected to attend an information session in advance and receive an explanation of the research from the faculty.
Takayuki Nishio, Associate Professor
1 student voices
The Nishio Lab conducts interdisciplinary research centered on wireless communications and linked with computer vision and machine learning. Under the banner of "integration of computing, communications, and sensing," the lab explores next-generation technologies for the IoT (Internet of Things), in which all kinds of things connect to the internet. It develops methods to predict the strength of invisible radio waves from camera images, and mechanisms for devices on a network to learn cooperatively. It is a relatively new lab, established in October 2020.
Hiroshi Sasaki, Associate Professor
1 student voices
The Sasaki Lab (CARAS Lab) conducts research to improve the security, power efficiency, and reliability of computer systems. Centered on computer architecture, the lab takes a broad view that extends from system software, such as operating systems, to applications. Rather than chasing trends, the lab wants to carry out highly original research that will continue to be read for a long time. The lab has no core hours, and meetings are held one-on-one with a faculty member as a rule.
Takashi Obi, Professor
1 student voices
Obi Lab studies image processing technologies that help elucidate biological functions, and social information system technologies for the safe use of medical and other information. The lab belongs to the Convergence Value Co-Creation Research Center in the Institute of Integrated Research and to the Institute of Future Industrial Technology, and accepts students from the Department of Information and Communications Engineering in the School of Engineering. Because the lab works closely with the center's faculty, students can choose research topics from a wide range of medical and social information fields.
Isao Yamada, Professor
1 student voices
The Yamada Lab studies, from a mathematical standpoint, algorithms for solving problems in signal processing, machine learning, optimization, and inverse problems. Building on fixed point theory and computer algebra, the lab aims to create and systematize universal algorithms that are broadly applicable to data science and signal processing. The algorithms the lab develops are applied to inverse problems in fields such as imaging, acoustics, communications, and geophysical exploration. Note: The lab is not currently recruiting new members.
Atsushi Takahashi, Professor
1 student voices
Takahashi Lab studies techniques for automating the design of VLSI (very large-scale integrated circuits), especially the automation of physical design. As circuits continue to shrink, how circuits are placed and wired on a chip has come to have a major effect on their performance. The lab's research centers on physical design problems such as clock design, floorplanning, placement, routing, and packaging. The ultimate goal is to build more practical, high-performance VLSI design systems.
Hiroki Kuroda, Associate Professor
0 student voices
Kuroda Lab studies mathematical models and algorithms for solving fundamental problems in signal processing and optimization. Signal processing is the field concerned with extracting high-value information from observed data; removing noise from audio and images is one example. The lab also focuses on applications to real-world problems, centered on wireless communications and remote sensing. A new lab launched in April 2026, it welcomes visits from students who are considering joining.
Sumiko Miyata, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Miyata Lab researches communication traffic analysis and information security as part of the network infrastructure needed to realize smart cities. The lab also develops mechanisms that use data on the behavior of people and devices to control communication quality more flexibly. The lab started in April 2024, and has also published jointly authored international papers with the University of Glasgow and Loughborough University in the UK.
