The (Omachi)-Nose Lab conducts research for next-generation HCI (human-computer interaction) centered on sound, voice, and language. Its research themes include speech and singing voice synthesis and conversion, dialogue systems, speech emotion recognition, and restoration of degraded audio from old records. The lab is developing systems that support online learning, and is also considering building an Audio Captioning model that describes environmental sounds in text. The lab belongs to the Department of Communications Engineering, Graduate School of Engineering, Tohoku University.

The Image Information and Communication Engineering Lab (Omachi-Miyazaki Lab) researches how to enable computers to recognize and understand text and images as precisely as humans do. Images are all around us, such as photos taken with mobile phones. The lab aims to conduct research that uses such images to be useful in daily life or to make it more enjoyable. Its main research themes are scene text detection, video and image coding, indoor localization, and deep learning.
Yuji Matsuura, Professor

The Matsuura Lab researches technologies that use light to examine the state of the body, as well as hollow optical fibers. It develops methods that use infrared and ultraviolet light to analyze components in blood and breath. The lab also studies hollow optical fibers themselves, which are thin tubes that guide light. On the lab's website, it is introduced under two names: Biomedical Optical Engineering at the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering, and Communication and Information Measurement in the Department of Communications Engineering at the Graduate School of Engineering.

The Electromagnetic Wave Engineering Lab conducts research on electromagnetic waves, including the analysis of antennas and electromagnetic fields. Its research covers a wide range of areas, including electromagnetic theory, measurement, and the electromagnetic environment, and it works consistently from fundamentals to applications, using both theory and experiments. In the lab's introduction video, it explains that radio waves are used in many fields, such as medicine, sensors, autonomous driving, and disaster management. On the lab's website, the lab is introduced under the name "Chen-Konno Lab."
Masato Yoshida, Professor

The Micro-Optics Lab conducts applied research on optical communication and optical measurement based on optical fibers. Behind this is the explosive growth in data traffic driven by the spread of Internet-based services, which has made increasing the capacity and density of optical fiber communication networks and strengthening their security urgent issues. Optical fiber communication networks are increasingly being applied to distributed sensing, which measures temperature, pressure, vibration, and more continuously over space. On the lab's website, the lab is introduced under the name "Yoshida Lab."
Shin Yoshizawa, Professor
0 student voices
The Yoshizawa Lab studies how to treat cancer and other conditions by focusing ultrasound energy on the affected area. In medicine, ultrasound is widely used to take images of internal organs and to examine blood flow. Because ultrasound therapy can treat the affected area without bleeding, it is gentle on the body and is attracting attention as a method that meets the needs of an aging society. The lab accepts graduate students from the Graduate School of Engineering and the Graduate School of Biomedical Engineering.
Toshihiko Hirooka, Professor

The Ultrafast Optical Communication Lab studies ultrafast, high-efficiency optical communication technologies for efficiently carrying ever-growing amounts of data. The lab works on optical time-division multiplexing, which shifts and stacks very short light pulses in time, and on digital coherent optical communication, which applies wireless communication methods to optical communication. With new communication services such as 5G and Beyond 5G in view, the lab also aims to develop a new field that fuses optical and wireless communication as the same electromagnetic waves. The lab also works on stabilizing lasers for communication and on using them to measure earthquakes and tsunamis.
Noriharu Suematsu, Professor

The Advanced Wireless Communication Technology Lab studies technologies that make wireless communication, such as mobile phones, more reliable and lower in power consumption. The lab aims to realize advanced information networks that integrate terrestrial and satellite systems. It conducts consistent research and development, from hardware technologies such as signal processing circuits, devices, and packaging to wireless system technologies built on them. The lab belongs to the Information and Communication Infrastructure Research Division of the Research Institute of Electrical Communication.
Simon Greaves, Associate Professor

The Information Storage Systems Lab studies high-density information storage based on magnetic recording and magnetic devices. The amount of data generated as multimedia, IoT, and AI information is increasing rapidly every year, and storing it requires storage systems with high performance, large capacity, and low power consumption. The lab models magnetic materials and devices using micromagnetic simulation. It also studies magnetic devices for neuromorphic computing and probabilistic computing.
