_How can we use computers and other artificial systems to break the limitation of our imagination and enhance human creativity? Computational Creativity is a multidisciplinary research field to tackle this very question._

In this course, students will learn the basics of AI techniques such as Deep Learning and explore the possibility of various applications of it in the field of art (media art, sound art, music, graphics, literature, fashion design etc.). Through both technical aspects of AI and aesthetics of the artistic expressions, we'll try to critically contemplate the impact of AI on human beings as we know now and the society of the future.

Our seminar consists of the following three activities:

[Goup Project]
We have four internal group projects (Music Generation, AI Visuals, AI Media Art, the future of DJ). You'll join one (or multiple if you wish) of them and work with your teammate. I hope you can deepen your understandings of the field by working actively on the project.

[Personal Proejct]
Besides the group projects, I expect you to work on a small personal project within the field of Computational Creativity. We are going to organize brainstorming sessions to help you to choose the topic.

[Book reading club]
To understand and discuss the impact of new technologies from broader perspectives, you have mandatory reading assignments. This semester, we will read the following two books: Richard Dawkins's "Selfish Genes" and Kevin Kelly's "Technium."

This Project aims advanced research of the Internet technology as information infrastructure. It includes distributed system, web architecture, sensor networks, big data system, IoT(Internet of Things), Future Internet technology.

What exactly is a robot that does not give discomfort to us and we can easily accept its existence as a part of everyday life? Now we obtain capabilities to access ubiquitous information spaces and our human ability and cognitive performance will be gradually enhanced. Robots will also be integrated well into the human life and helping us naturally. They will have rich sensory perception and expressive facial signals, and are going to be social partners for us. In this laboratory, we are discussing what kind of “sociality” robots should have in human robot interactions (HRI).

We study linguistics, especially that with a cognitive-functional orientation. In one period (2nd) , we will read articles in cognitive-functional linguistics and learn about the major issues in this field. In another period (3rd), we will pursue our project by first collecting data and analyzing them.

This research project focuses on Cyber-Law issues.

The Iba Laboratory is looking for people who will work together on research and practice with the aim of shifting to a “natural and creative living” society where “natural deep creativity” occurs every day. The following projects are planned for 2022 (they are current plans and subject to change).
(1) Research on creating a Pattern Language for Generators That Spark Creativity
(2) Research on the creating a Pattern Language for Well-Being in Companies That Produce Results
(3) Research on creating a Pattern Language for Market Creation Marketing
(4) Research on the practical application of Pattern Language in New Development Assistance
(5) Research on narratives of Collective Creative Learning that change from values
(6) Research on creating a Pattern Language for Child-rearing in Nature (deepening and finishing phase)
(7) Practical research on training and workshops for elderly care using Words for Elderly Care and Environment
(8) Practical research on realizing a Creative Learning Community

Research topics; We will improve the sensitivity of metabolome analysis technology such as capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS). By applying this to biological samples, we will elucidate the pathogenic mechanism and search for biomarkers in various diseases.

This is a seminar for students who study the society, history and culture of the Middle East.

Arab Cultural Studies Lab aims to deepen our understanding of the contemporary Arab society by studying the language and culture of Arab countries. Also we try to find a point of contact between the Japanese society and the Arab society, and promote the activities that will build a bridge between them.

This seminar is targeted at those who are learning and have learnt German and are interested in the society, culture and history of the German-speaking areas.

The objective of this research lab is to analyze haptic phenomena in daily life.
In 2020-2022, we have learned basic statistics and multivariate analysis. Based on this background, we would like to conduct research projects on a group basis. Senior students are supposed to lead a project, and junior students would support the research project (but junior students can add some of the research items in the main project).

The main topic of this KENKYUKAI is examining Japanese language and culture toward multilingual and multicultural inclusive society.

This seminar aims to explore and examine our intercultural communication from a critical perspective. Culture is in fact influenced by economic and political issues which create unequal relations of power between peoples. Therefore, it is imperative that we understand the politics at work in an intercultural context and develop critical literacy. We will examine intercultural communication throughout reading and discussing a book or some articles. Students will also conduct a research/project on related topics to assigned literature or graduate thesis.

This seminar will help students to deepen understanding about recent various global economic issues. The first half will focus on students' presentation on short articles and discussions, as well as debate. The topics will depend on the content of articles published at around the seminar period. The past seminar covered climate change, SDGs, debt problems in developing countries, Covid-19 crisis, monetary policy, monetary-fiscal policy coordination, , ESG investment, US economic policy under Mr. Biden, Japan's economy and aging, China's economy, Japan's economy and aging, digital assets, etc. The second half will concentrate on students' presentation on the term paper and discussions.

The GIGA seminar will focus on various economic issues. It consists of two parts. The first half will be based on reading short articles on various economics-related issues and students' presentation and discussions. The topics depends on the availability of latest articles. The past seminars covered digital assets, CBDC, climate change, carbon pricing, digital tax, COVID-19 pandemic, debt problems in emerging market economies, poverty and inequality, China's economy, monetary policy, financial and capital markets, and DX and digitalization etc. Also, the seminar may have a debate on the hot global issues (for example, President Biden's economic policies were discussed in 2021). The second half will be based on students' presentation on the term paper and preparing the paper on the topics chosen by students.

Clinical philosophy on education of foreign language

This seminar concentrates on landscape studies. In Japan, landscape sometimes means only visible features of an area of land, but invisible factors, such as historical background, natural and social environment, and so on, are critical. Students can approach everything related to the landscape. This seminar's keywords are below; ecology, city and rural planning, garden and park, urban green space, civil vitalization, land-use change, environmental education, reconstruction in the disaster field, disaster prevention, and land use plan in a river basin. All students have their own themes. Some students hold a presentation in each class. If you require to join a project, please see the syllabus of the seminar "Green Infrastructure." In this seminar, we will also emphasize discussion of the presentations. In addition, this seminar requires students to read a lot of articles and books.

The theme of this this seminar is
Politics, Economy, and Society of South Korea and North Korea. The purpose of this research is to focus on the political and social fields, economic and management fields, and historical fields, targeting the Korean Peninsula (South Korea and North Korea) as a region. By preparing a flexible and wide-ranging perspective, we will try to deepen our understanding of the Korean Peninsula, which is a neighboring region.
