The Information Logic Lab conducts research aimed at bridging the gap between humans and computers in programming. Writing code in a way that suits humans puts a burden on the computer, while writing it in a way that suits the computer puts a burden on humans. To address this, the lab works on program transformation, which derives computer-oriented descriptions from human-oriented ones, and program verification, which guarantees that programs match their intended behavior. Centered on formal tree language theory, the lab also carries out research using proof assistants.

The High-Performance Computing Lab aims to create next-generation supercomputing technologies. It researches areas such as fundamental software technologies that make the most of supercomputer performance. Recently, the lab has been working on using machine learning to automate programming work that skilled programmers have traditionally done by hand as a craft. It is also researching how to use supercomputers flexibly in coordination with real-time observation data. The lab also studies how to use vector processors, quantum computers, and hardware that can be reconfigured to suit each application effectively in supercomputing. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name Takizawa Lab.

The Fundamental Data Informatics Lab researches frameworks, and their applications, for interpreting data collected from complex and diverse natural phenomena, social phenomena, and human activities as valuable information, giving it meaning, and putting it to use. In particular, the lab mainly deals with cases that are transient and difficult to handle with standard procedures. The faculty members each work on learning analytics in IT education and e-learning, visualization of learning histories, and the development of statistical data analysis methods.

The Reconfigurable Systems Lab, at the Center for Unprecedented-Scale Data Analytics, researches and develops computer systems based on new reconfigurable LSIs. In particular, the lab studies how to implement and apply AI on FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays), as well as high-performance computing with FPGAs. The lab has joint research projects with many companies, and students can gain experience developing with the latest FPGAs. The lab not only publishes its research results in papers but also works to put them to use in business through a Tohoku University startup.

Akira Suzuki, Professor

The Large-Scale Data Mathematical Optimization Lab researches algorithms for large and complex data, centered on graph theory and mathematical optimization. The lab designs fast algorithms that run in a realistic amount of time even on large-scale real-world data, and theoretically analyzes their computational complexity. The lab also implements the algorithms it designs and verifies them. The lab is a new lab that was established in April 2026.

The High-Performance Photonic Quantum Computing Platform (NTTR) Joint Research Lab carries out research on a next-generation computing platform that combines high-performance computing (HPC) technology with photonic quantum technology. It is a joint research lab established in the Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, Graduate School of Information Sciences. The lab's website announces that the former Architecture Lab has moved to a new structure, and serves as an entry point that guides visitors to the pages of the new labs, including this one.
