Admission Policy (Master's Program in Computer Science)
Information Science is a fast progressing field of study. In order to cultivate future researchers who will lead the way, highly-specialized professionals, and educators of the next generation, we offer wide research and educational opportunities from basic principles to applied technology. We therefore welcome highly-motivated persons with basic academic skills in Information Science and Mathematical Science, and those with sophisticated English academic literacy.

Discrete Mathematics / Document Processing System iFormula Processing Special Coursej We take a computational approach in analyzing natural and social phenomena. For example, applied studies of understanding phenomenon of formula processing, and a supportive use of computing machine in a process of knowledge acquisition. Also a use of computing machine and network especially in a field of education, particular in remote education. |

Information Visualization / Multimedia iVisual Computing Special Course / Media Computing Special Coursej We are involved in the visualization of information using computer graphics to contribute to our society. For example, visualization in the fields of electric power, medicine, medical care, life information, and security. We study how to use visualization to work on multimedia technology as graphics and audio data. |

Network Computing / Middleware (Computer Network Special Course) We study advanced use of networks in data processing, providing information, supportive systems in user communication. Computer network, represented as internet, is requisite and considerable as a social infrastructure in all computer use. Thus, we must investigate the tremendous upgrade and continuing advance of technology. |

Numeric Hydrodynamics Special Course / Numeric Simulation iSimulation Science Special Coursej In our laboratory, we analyze the issues of Science and Engineering by numeric simulations. In recent years, the long progress of computer has made numeric simulations an immerse possibility as the third way of study next to theories and experiments. In particular, we have interests in applying numeric simulations to Environmental Science and Life Science, since the environmental issues are more and more vital today. |

Itiro Siio(Prof.) Lab Home Page |
Human Interface iHuman Computer System Special Course) We make approaches and implementations of human interface and application in a field more accessible to us, such as home information appliances and ubiquitous computers for daily use. It is needless to say that small-scale and low-cost computer technology should be a device that is close to our daily lives. |

Applied Analysis /Operator Algebra Theory (Information Analysis Special Course) It might sound unfamiliar, but my specialty is Anti-commutative Probability Theory (something different to Probability Theory). For a masteral research, we study the methods and applications of statistical data analysis that extract genuinely valuable information from the static-ridden data. |

Kenichi Asai(Associate Prof.) Lab Home Page |
Programming Languages (Advanced Topics on Programming Languages) We study the fundamental theory of programming languages, focusing on functional languages in particular. How can we execute a program efficiently? How can we write a program easily? How can we avoid programming errors? We approach the structure and essence of programming languages using mathematical approaches. |

Numerical Computation / Statistical Mechanics (Numerical Method Special
Course) Macroscopic properties of a system are different from those of microscopic individuals. Statistical mechanics has been developed to study interesting macroscopic phenomena. We use numerical methods to study those phenomena. |

Dynamical Systems (Applied Analysis Special Course) There is a variety of mysterious phenomena (dynamics) in the world, such as biological activity and whether change. To understand, predict and control dynamics, we need to deal with differential equations. In our group, we try to understand dynamical phenomena with differential equations. In particular, we are interested in rhythmic activities including biological clocks and locomotions. |

Computational Linguistics / Theoretical Linguistics iMathematical Science Special Coursej My research project targets on formal and computational linguistics, in particular, syntactic and semantic structures. One of the esoteric facts about natural language is that almost all of us competently use it without being able to explain how it is processed. Our approach toward this fundamental question is two-fold: construction of a formal theory of natural language based on mathematical logic, and generalization of language phenomena that are repeatable among native speakers. |

Molecular programming / evolutionary optimization While nowadays computers are usually silicon-based, the concept of computing, as proposed by Alan Turing, is more generic. We focus on molecular programming, a field that relies on encoding data as molecular concentrations and operations as chemical reactions among those molecules. The main issue is programmability: how to turn a given program into a valid set of reactions implementing it? We combine two approaches: computer assistance for human-based designs and evolutionary optimization for automated design discovery. |
