Information processing systems with advanced intelligence technologies such as machine learning, as well as signal processing systems based on multimedia technologies, will contribute to a safe and secure society. In this laboratory, we conduct research on informatics technology that largely utilizes the power of software while still being based on hardware processing. Our research projects include a video processing system for a street- or storefront-mounted surveillance camera that provides a cognitive ability comparable to a human, making it possible to identify suspicious behavior; a non-invasive medical diagnosis system to process the inner body sound signals acquired with high-sensitivity microphones to detect signs of lifestyle diseases such as arteriosclerosis and heart disease in everyday life; and an image quality improvement system that uses computers to sharpen camera images degraded by darkness, backlight, mist, dust, and so on.
