This course offers an introduction to the rapidly-growing field of probabilistic computing, which brings together probabilistic modeling and inference techniques with symbolic computation and neural networks. Students will see a broad range of probabilistic computing applications, and will gain familiarity with how to frame artificial intelligence tasks as the problem of probabilistic inference in a generative model. Students will also learn about several inference techniques, and understand the distinctions between probabilistic computing and other machine learning methods.
Unlike "building" as an existence and "construction" as an activity, "architecture" is an idea and a concept. If the consciousness of artificial work on the environment is the origin of architecture, it is rather natural that it is the most primitive intellectual creation act of mankind, and that it is a comprehensive and boundary existence that has corresponds with all areas. Currently, the research subjects and activity areas that architecture should deal with are dynamically expanding and merging due to various factors such as social changes, progress of computerization, and needs for coexistence with the natural environment. Today, the ability to cooperate with other fields in various aspects, from aspects such as urban development planning to devising construction technology, is necessary for a practical experience in the field of architecture, . In SFC, "architecture" is not fixed or dogmatic, but exists as a common item of creative and comprehensive intellectual activities across faculty members with various areas of interest. On top of that, in order to acquire the ability to carry out this on a realistic social system, the students will get review on their project of "architecture" that is being tackled from a different approach depending on each research theme. The purpose is to acquire the ability to expand the architectural domain and realize the fusion with new fields by exchanging it in and comprehensively verifying it from the viewpoint related to the practice of architecture.
Following the Coronavirus pandemic, cities around the world have entered an new era in which we must fundamentally rethink methods of urban development that were once considered common sense. What kind of urban future should we envision in the VUCA (Volatile・Uncertain・Complex・Ambiguous) world?
The economy and fabric of cities transform due to various factors, as do their spatial qualities. In this course, we will explore the goals of urbanization, the conditions that shape these goals, and the factors and mechanisms of real estate development. We will investigate the cause of transformations in urban economy and space, citing specific examples of real estate and investment case studies from Japan and abroad.
In addition, we will welcome a professor of MIT who teaches real estate design and a developper in the United States to discuss the future of urban development and consider the future of Japanese cities. At the same time, we will explore the possibilities of real estate design in the post-corona era, considering local values and the rise of the sharing economy.
The theme of this course is the "governance" of "security" of Japan. Based on overview of Japanese police and criminal justice system, we will look at issues related to security, such as international terrorism, narcotics, Boryokudan(or Japanese mafia), child abuse, and seek measures to deal with these issues.
This course aims to provide students with foundational knowledge and techniques to engage in the formulation and implementation of international environmental policy.
This class will enable students to acquire literacy in international environmental policy, which is indispensable for future work in international institutions and organizations in the environmental field. With a view to solving environmental problems that are emerging in various parts of the world, the class will cultivate students’ knowledge using typical and representative examples related to basic points such as “why must we resort to international systems?” and “through what means and methods can the international society support the resolution of specific problems?” At the same time,the class will provide students with basic environmental management tools for handling the environment on a macroscale that they can understand as international environmental policy professionals.
Finally, simulations of international environmental policy negotiations will be conducted so that students can understand the basics, grasp the mechanics of multilateral environmental negotiations, and cultivate practical communication and negotiation skills. Furthermore, an experiential practicum with environmental measurement technology will also be conducted to help students develop a fundamental technological skill set that can be used to formulate and implement data-driven environmental policies.
This course gives an overview of the present status and future perspectives of global environment, resources, and energy problems. To obtain simultaneous solution for both environment and energy problems, we will consider and propose what is the optimum energy mix in the future.
The overall aspects, i.e., technical consistency/feasibility and social acceptability/policy making will be discussed by all of the participants in this course. To study technical aspects intensively, we will conduct 6
weeks exercise under close contact with advisory members of this course.
Health communication is the study and practice of communicating promotional health information, such as in public health campaigns, health education, and communication between doctor and patient.
This course involves lots of group-works. Foreign students are welcome but need have basic Japanese communication skills.

This class will be held as a part of the Cyber Security course. Of course you can take this class even you don't join to the Cyber Security course. In this class, we investigate how to secure your software. It might be bug of library, your coding skill. Penetration testing is important too.
The purpose of this class is to acquire knowledge about the various laws and policies related to information security.
Information security measures are important issues for information management, and in order to implement the information security management measures stipulated by these laws and regulations, a high level knowledge of the law and its interpretation as well as related policies is required. It is essential that we introduce organisational, human, technical and physical security measures in order to properly implement the technical measures. However, it is appropriate to understand the standards necessary to achieve this purpose. This is a prerequisite for implementing and introducing various information security measures. In addition, these information security measures are not limited to those people who respond professionally in companies but also, in the current situation, where computers and networks are widely used in everyday life. It is equally important to understand the laws and systems related to information security in the current network society.
This is the training course to enhance your research ability to understand and strengthen our neural communication between the brain and body, related to various functions such as thinking, feeling, learning, sensing, and moving. You will learn various methodologies such as neurophysiological wave recordings (EEG and/or EMG), neural stimulations (TMS, tDCS, tACS), neural imaging (fMRI), and computational neuroscience, and consider how to apply them for your own research.
In this semester, we will have this class online by using Zoom.
This lecture explains knowledge and methodologies of computer incident response and digital forensic. The information system in enterprise environment is an important factor of business continuity. Due to the current trend of business diversification and supply-chain manufacturing structure, the information system results in being complicated. Meanwhile cyber attacks against the information system in enterprise environment continues to get sophisticated. This lecture aims for development of cyber security experts who can practically handle such information security issues in the enterprise environment.
This lecture systematically discusses the issues of ordinary (in peacetime) security operations and emergency responses to computer security incidents from the technical and institutional view points. The emergency responses include matters of digital forensic technology.
Course Description/Summary:
This course is divided into two parts. PART I: Issues and Opportunities in Contemporary Cities; and PART II: Research Methods for Environmental and Urban Challenges.
Today, better research skills and methods are urgently needed to enhance research-informed decision-making for urban development. This course includes a survey of research methods in environmental design; quantitative and qualitative methods used in researching design, social/behavioral, and technical problems in urban development and cities. It deals with models of urbanisation and concepts of sustainable cities. This course is particularly suitable for students with an interest in environmental design and concepts of urbanisation.
This graduate seminar course is for mature students and is based on self-directed learning. The students will develop an understanding of issues and methods of research in environmental design. Students will work through a series of online lectures, conduct research projects and share their findings in joined online reviews. A significant part of the weekly meeting is devoted to lectures. Specifically, this course aims to address and synthesize: Investigative Skills; Research, and Innovation in Urban Development.
Students will apply methods of design research to explore the urban development of different cities and regions across the world. The seminar provides students with an understanding of the key challenges facing both mature and rapidly-developing metropolitan areas. Dealing with large-scale change in cities, students will explore research that focuses on applied methods and new knowledge that is shaping the urban world, analyzing urban sustainability projects and city policies from design, social, and environmental perspectives. There are two assignments.
