Takeshi OKADOME, Professor
Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
This course has the purpose to learn the optimization mathematics and the introduction of machine learning.Students should be able to the following optimization algorithms: the gradient method, the conjugate gradient method, and Newton's method, and to understand the basic concepts of deep learning.Each time, one or two people will be in charge and present what they have learned so far.
Koh KAKUSHO, Professor
Image Information Processing Laboratory
The purpose of this practical training course is for students to obtain the skills of estimating and classifying human body poses using color images and depth images.Students will learn basic techniques of estimating and classifying human body poses using color images and depth images obtained by RGB-D cameras.First, we will learn how to create a two-dimensional human posture estimation program using color images among the images obtained by the RGB-D camera. Next, three-dimensional attitude estimation is realized by using a distance image together. In addition, we will learn about the clustering of the obtained human postures and the classification method of unknown postures based on the results. Finally, we will make a free production about human behavior recognition using them and give a demo presentation.
Naoko KISHIMOTO, Professor
This course aims to develop students' existing skills and knowledge for general engineering research and tackle the specific challenges in preparation for "Research Work" in the final (4th) year of the undergraduate program.By the end of this course, successful students should be able to;
tackle the specific challenges with existing or developed skills and knowledge,
plan and report results with understanding constraints and deadlines.

Suguru N. KUDOH, Professor
Laboratory for Neurointelligence Engineering
The purpose of this exercise course is to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for graduation research in the 4th year. Students will acquire a basic knowledge of the life sciences, and will undergo practical training of bioengineering techniques, including the primary culture of neuronal cells, brain wave measurement, as powerful tools for analysis in neuroengineering. Students will also learn about computer and electronic equipment, LAN settings, etc. In addition, students will prepare reports and give presentations.Students will be able to develop their own environment to perform research, by acquiring basic /general-purpose knowledge and techniques, and the ability to write technical reports and present them.Don't worry about pre-study preparation. It is good if you have a wide range of interests.
Knowledge of cognitive science, neuroscience, signal processing, programming, etc. is desirable.

Yasuyuki KONO, Professor
Human Computer Interaction Laboratory
The main purpose of this course is for students to acquire basic knowledge and skills for conducting their bachelor thesis research.Student should be able to read papers and articles on human-computer interaction written in both Japanese and English and understand the gist of these documents.Human computer interaction, real-world information recognition, sensor information processing, image information processing, ubiquitous computing, internal and external literature research and content introduction to solidify the basic knowledge of the research field, and the latest research activities in the laboratory. By touching the contents, you will develop a sense of the current state and future image of information technology related to humans. Cultivating these knowledge and feelings at an early stage and having your own opinions also prepares for job hunting and higher education activities.
Norihiko SAGA, Professor
Bio Robotics Laboratory
Based on 3D-CAD/CAM/CAE and control engineering exercises, acquire the skills and knowledge necessary to design and manufacture products that satisfy given specifications.By the end of the course, students should be able to do the following:
1) Develop a robot that satisfies the requirements specification.
2) Give a technical explanation and a presentation about the developed robot.

Daisuke CHUGO, Professor
Service Robotics Laboratory
The purpose of this exercise course is to acquire knowledge / skills necessary for graduation research of the 4th year.
The purpose is also practice of presentation skills through progress presentation etc. Course contents are determined taking into consideration the request of students, for example, programming system, intelligent robotics system, etc. It is also assumed that applicants set up own research themes and tackle the research as the preparation stage of graduation research.
Students will be able to build their own environment to perform research for graduation-exam., by acquiring basic /general-purpose knowledge and technique, and to acquire fundamental ability to write technical reports and to present it.detail
Keizo MIYAHARA, Professor
