How Image Processing Works
We introduce fundamental image processing techniques based on simple mathematical operations, as presented in a mock lecture by Associate Professor Ito at the 2019 Open Campus.

Research Introduction
3D Reconstruction
Three-dimensional reconstruction recovers object shape from images. By measuring distance for every pixel using triangulation, we can restore three-dimensional structure — a technique known as stereo vision. Here we explain the basics of stereo vision and multi-view 3D reconstruction.
View detailsBig Data Analysis
Deep learning enables high-accuracy image recognition by leveraging vast datasets. Here, as one example, we describe facial attribute estimation, which infers attributes (age, gender, hairstyle, etc.) from a massive facial image dataset.
View detailsBiometrics
Biometrics identifies individuals using physiological or behavioral characteristics. Face and fingerprint authentication on smartphones have made the technology part of everyday life. Here we describe various biometrics research undertaken in our laboratory.
View detailsRemote Sensing
Remote sensing observes the Earth’s surface from a distance using aircraft, satellites, and other platforms. Radar is employed to measure the surface with high precision from afar. Here we describe our research on surface analysis using synthetic aperture radar (SAR).
View detailsMedical Image Processing
Image-based diagnosis using X-ray, CT, and MRI is commonplace in clinical practice. Computer analysis of medical images supports physicians in diagnosis. Here we describe our research on brain MRI analysis and ultrasound image analysis.
View detailsBioinformatics
Bioinformatics fuses life science and information science. Among its topics is the design of artificial nucleic acids called aptamers — sequences that bind to specific proteins and are applied to biopharmaceuticals and molecular sensing. Here we describe research on discovering aptamers from vast nucleic acid sequence pools.
