Hiroyuki Kajimoto, Faculty member
0 student voices
The Kajimoto Lab researches how to create the sense of touch felt at the fingertips with machines and how to convey it. Using electrotactile displays, which produce sensations by applying electrical stimulation to the skin, the lab investigates the feel of pressing a button and how the perception of touch changes with skin temperature. The lab also measures how finely different locations on the fingertip can distinguish sensations, and applies the results to device design, such as electrode placement.

Tomonori Hashiyama, Professor
0 student voices
The Hashiyama Lab specializes in human-computer interaction, soft computing, and intelligent informatics. Since October 2003 at The University of Electro-Communications, the lab has been researching communication between autonomous mobile robots and humans, and the establishment of design methodologies for human-centered systems. Before joining The University of Electro-Communications, Prof. Hashiyama conducted research at Nagoya University and elsewhere using soft computing methods such as fuzzy theory, neural networks, and genetic algorithms.

Naoki Hashimoto
0 student voices
Hashimoto Lab studies video and display technologies that create new visual experiences, focusing on immersive virtual environments, wide field-of-view HMDs, and autostereoscopic 3D image presentation. By actively exploiting the characteristics of human vision, the lab aims to achieve image presentation that goes beyond the limits of conventional hardware. The lab's research is presented under three themes: technologies for entering the visual world, technologies for wearing the visual world, and technologies for touching the visual world. Lab visits are accepted at any time. Visitors who wish to see demos are advised to use the lab open houses held during Open Campus and Open Lab events.

Hironori Egi, Professor
0 student voices
The Education and Learning Support Systems Lab studies information systems that help people grow through communication. Building on information engineering and drawing on the perspective of educational technology, the lab develops systems, introduces them into real education and learning settings, and carries out practice and evaluation. Together with technologies such as learner sensing, the lab studies how to measure the states of learners and groups, and how to make use of the data accumulated in information systems. On the lab website, the lab is presented as the "Education and Learning Support Systems Lab (Egi-Tsubakimoto Lab)." The lab is run jointly by Professor Hironori Egi and Associate Professor Yayoi Tsubakimoto.

Yasuyuki Tahara
0 student voices
Tahara Lab conducts research on four themes: agents, the intelligent Web, software engineering, and data mining. According to the lab website, these are fields of advanced information technology that will shape the sophisticated information society of the 21st century. Building on these four themes, the lab works on what the future information society should look like and on new technologies that will support it. On the lab website, the lab is presented as the "Tahara-Sei Lab."

Takeshi Oda, Assistant Professor
0 student voices
The Oda Lab studies how to build high-quality software efficiently. On its website, the lab calls for moving away from programming that depends on craftsmanship, debugging that takes months, and bugs that never go away. In its research on automatic code synthesis, the lab reuses assets from past software development as components and automatically generates source code that reproduces the desired functionality. The lab also works on specification verification, which checks that software specifications contain no errors.

Yoichi Haneda, Professor
0 student voices
The Haneda Lab studies acoustic signal processing, aiming to build highly immersive 3D audio technology and control technology that can shape sound fields freely. Based on array signal processing with multiple loudspeakers and microphones arranged in arrays, the lab studies interactive audio, in which sound images floating in the air are manipulated directly by hand. Day-to-day research centers on algorithm development using computer simulation. Finally, the lab builds a system and evaluates its performance through sound field measurements and subjective evaluation experiments. It is also a lab where students work with hardware, such as making their own loudspeaker and microphone holders with 3D printers.

Mitsuo Wakatsuki, Assistant Professor
0 student voices
The Wakatsuki Lab conducts research on the foundations of artificial intelligence within computer science. Its research mainly involves developing algorithms. Its research themes relate to automata and formal language theory, computational learning theory, combinatorial optimization problems, and game informatics. Graduation research themes concern keywords such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and algorithms.

Kazuyuki Takagi, Assistant Professor
0 student voices
Takagi Lab studies how computers recognize and synthesize speech. One of its research keywords is spoken language identification, which automatically determines which language a spoken utterance is in. The lab has also worked on speech recognition in noisy environments and on parsing sentence structure using prosodic information such as intonation. Recently, it has presented work at the Ongaku Symposium on speech synthesis that controls voice quality and prosody through text instructions, and on speech recognition for conversation.

Hiroki Takahashi, Professor
0 student voices
Takahashi Lab studies how computers process and recognize images and video. The lab works on technology that supports communication between deaf and hearing people, including research on recognizing sign language from video. It also studies human pose and hand motion estimation, analysis of sports and surveillance camera footage, and generating avatars from text.
