The Higher-Order Visual Information Lab studies what people see and how vision works. Centered on psychophysical experiments that examine the characteristics of human vision, the lab also uses brain function measurement and computer vision methods. The lab builds models of spatial perception, 3D perception, and the mechanisms of attentional selection, aiming at applications in ergonomics and image engineering. The lab works on predicting how appearance changes with the environment, just as the same piece of colored paper looks a different color depending on its surroundings.

The Interactive Content Lab studies technologies for creating, using, and making more convenient the content that is provided through interaction with people. The lab considers output devices that present content, input devices through which people convey their intentions, and the spaces surrounding them as a whole. It looks beyond single-user situations to collaborative work by multiple people and settings where everyone enjoys content together. Research also covers attempts to make conventional analog content more appealing by adding creative touches, not only digital content.

The Integrated Fluid Informatics Lab aims to develop and systematize methods for analyzing multiphase fluids by integrating massively parallel distributed computing with advanced optical measurement. The lab also conducts fundamental research on new multiphase fluid systems directly linked to environmentally harmonious energy, typified by high-density hydrogen. It also works on nano-cleaning technology using cryogenic fine particles ejected at supersonic speed, and on simulation technology for evaluating the impact force of tsunamis carrying drifting objects and earthquake debris. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Multiphase Flow Energy Research Field."

The Software Construction Lab studies techniques for building highly reliable and efficient software, based on foundational theories such as formal logic and programming theory. In particular, it works on program verification, which mathematically and rigorously guarantees that a program satisfies its specification, and on program synthesis, which generates programs that satisfy a specification. The lab also researches and develops tools such as solvers that solve verification and synthesis problems.

The Foundations of Artificial Intelligence Lab (the Jun Suzuki Lab, Failab) studies a wide range of foundational technologies used when machines (computers) learn automatically from data. The keywords listed for its research field are language intelligence, generative AI, AI foundation models, learning systems, and deep learning. The lab belongs to the Department of System Information Sciences, Graduate School of Information Sciences, Tohoku University, and was launched in April 2021. Undergraduate students began joining the lab in April 2024.

The Real-Time Computing Systems Lab studies perceptual information processing built on real-time data processing, and its applications. In particular, it focuses on high-frame-rate video. It is advancing applications in robotics, visual media, human-computer interaction, and other areas. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Kagami Lab."

The Language Informatics Lab studies natural language processing for AI that collaborates with people to carry out complex tasks. The lab aims to have computers understand the language people use in daily life and the information surrounding it, and perform high-level knowledge processing, so that AI can work alongside people on a wide range of tasks. The lab works on technologies that understand image and speech input together with language, and on technologies that summarize and edit information according to human instructions.

The Linguistic Text Analysis Lab studies how human language ability is acquired and how it changes and varies, from the standpoint of humanities-oriented linguistics. The lab investigates these questions from both theoretical and empirical sides, using generative grammar theory, which emerged in the mid-1950s, and electronic corpora, which have become widespread since the 2000s. The lab statistically analyzes language data collected from large groups of speakers, and adopts new methods for testing whether hypotheses in theoretical linguistics are valid. The lab aims to clarify what the universality of natural language is, within the framework of generative grammar.

The Learning Psychology and Informatics Lab uses brain measurements to clarify individual differences in abilities and thinking traits. The lab measures various cognitive and psychological factors, such as language ability and well-being, and investigates the features of brain structure and functional brain networks that give rise to these individual differences. The lab aims to understand individuals' abilities and traits quantitatively and objectively, and to develop methods for enhancing them. The lab uses MRI and EEG for brain measurements, and its research is carried out by people from diverse backgrounds.

The Cognitive Psychology and Informatics Lab studies human cognitive functions such as perception, attention, memory, imagery, and Kansei (sensibility), mainly using the methods of experimental psychology. Psychological issues surrounding the use of computers are also among its research subjects. On the lab's website, it is presented as the "Cognitive Psychology and Informatics / Communication Psychology Division," which consists of two labs belonging to the Department of Human-Social Information Sciences. The lab also works with the information literacy education program of the Graduate School of Information Sciences, and information education and computer literacy are among its main research themes.
