Supervisor

Associate Professor / SUGITA Yasunori
Dr. Sugita, our teacher, is understanding and friendly. We often talk freely about research, hobby, and more. He also thinks with us in our shoes when we are at the seminar. Students respect him thanks to his dedicated advice and profound knowledge.

Research Content

Nowadays, Digital Signals are surrounding our society, and everything uses them. For example, 4K/8K ultra-high definition videos and High-Res audio are typical uses of Digital Signal Processing technology.
We are researching various themes, such as super-resolution on image processing, highly directional speakers, signal processing using machine learning et cetera. Although we're a Digital Signal Processing Lab, we also make some hardware or devices like dummy heads using a 3D printer.

A Day in the Lab

We have a laboratory seminar and a personal seminar almost every week.
In the laboratory seminar, we report our research progress to all the members in the lab, and reporters will receive questions and advice. Then in the personal seminar, we discuss the research plan in more detail with Dr. Sugita individually.
There are no other rules about research or core times. So we can join in the club activities or work part-time jobs, but on the other hand, we have to manage and motivate ourselves.
Sometimes we get inspiration from chatting or from the research of our colleagues.
