Yuko Kanamori, Program-Specific Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Global Environment Lab is run under a partnership agreement between Institute of Science Tokyo and the National Institute for Environmental Studies. Focusing on environmental issues, the lab builds models that incorporate people, society, and the economy, and uses them to develop future scenarios and conduct policy evaluation for a sustainable society. The faculty also includes researchers from the National Institute for Environmental Studies. Recent degree theses have addressed the transition to a decarbonized society, household electricity consumption and CO2 emissions, and the impacts of climate change.
Kazuhide Nakata, Professor
0 student voices
The Nakata Lab studies operations research, machine learning, and mathematical optimization. These fields overlap considerably, and the lab conducts research across them. Recently, joint research with companies has increased, and the lab mathematically solves problems arising on the front lines and analyzes real data to find new insights. By joining a joint research project, students can experience how the theory they learn at university is put to use in society.
Ryuji Uozumi, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Uozumi Lab studies biostatistics, the statistics of medical research. Its interests include the design and analysis of clinical trials, survival analysis, and causal inference. The lab works on both methodological research that develops new statistical methods and applied research that uses statistics in actual studies. Associate Professor Uozumi has extensive experience advising and supporting medical researchers who come with statistical questions.
Ryutaro Ichise, Professor
0 student voices
The Ichise Lab studies artificial intelligence with learning as its key. The lab aims to have computers, on behalf of humans, extract the necessary knowledge from the flood of information, consolidate it, and make it usable. In this way, the lab hopes to open up a world where computers can expand not only human memory but also human thought. Recently, the lab has received awards for work such as a recommender system that uses knowledge graphs to explain its recommendations and research on detecting errors in large language models.
Kota Ogasawara, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Ogasawara Lab studies how human capital is formed in the course of economic development. Its key resource is historical statistics, which record the state of past societies and economies. The lab builds new long-term socioeconomic databases and analyzes them statistically with econometric models designed for each purpose. Through this analysis, the lab aims to deliver insights useful for development.
Tomomi Matsui, Professor
0 student voices
The Matsui Lab conducts research that supports comfortable living by making full use of mathematics and computers. Its specialties are optimization, algorithms, and combinatorics. In Prof. Matsui's recent papers, the topics include the problem of scheduling sports games and the design of transportation networks that move goods via hubs. The lab also lists operations research and game theory among its research keywords.
Takehiko Yamato, Professor
0 student voices
The Yamato Lab studies institution design to achieve efficient and fair allocation of resources. Centered on mechanism design and experimental economics, the lab combines microeconomic theory and game theory with experiments. Even institutions that theory shows to be good are tested in experiments with human participants to see whether they actually work in practice. The lab is divided into a "Theory Track" and an "Experiment Track," which carry out theoretical and experimental research respectively.
Hiroyuki Umemuro, Professor
0 student voices
The Umemuro Lab conducts research focusing on human emotions and states. The lab calls something "affective" when it has the power to evoke emotions in people and has been carefully designed with people's emotional experience in mind. The lab aims to make the world affective by understanding and creating people's emotional experiences. The core of the research is "humans." Students have studied topics such as human-robot interaction, older adults and technology, and the effects of emotions on organizations.
Ryo Kawasaki, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Kawasaki Lab uses game theory to study what better social systems should look like. In recent years, research that takes an engineering approach to social mechanisms, based on theoretical research in economics, has become active. The Kawasaki Lab uses game theory methods to apply this theoretical research to economics and various other fields. The keywords of the research are game theory, matching theory, and stability.
