 Information-related technologies such as optical fibers are used for the Internet. Information is displayed, transformed into electrical signals in the retina of the eyeballs, then transmitted to the central nervous system, and converted into letters or sentences in a way for humans to understand it. Advanced information processing is carried out within our brains during conversation. To establish the technique for obtaining, communicating, and processing information, we conduct education and research in optical information processing, statistical inverse problem, and biosignal processing. |

 We deal with the research and development of computer systems which can make use of information as organic knowledge and think flexibly, as well as robots which can act autonomously. More specifically, the following research themes are being carried out: computer techniques for understanding natural language and translating it into other languages, sign languages, and braille; robots which can plan, act, and learn in certain environments; the mechanism of the human mind and communication between humans and machines by using the intelligent machines―the computers. |
