The Isogawa Laboratory is a new laboratory established in 2022!
We are conducting research on Computer Vision (CV) and Sensing under the supervision of Assistant Prof. Isogawa.
Individual laboratory information session (FY 2024)
Come and see our new lab!
All the sessions are available at Yagami Campus 24-308.
10/31 (Thu) 16:30~ <only students>
11/5 (Tue) 18:10-19:10 <First session>
11/11 (Mon) 18:10-19:10 <Second session>
All session are held in-person!
Thank you for visiting our website. In 2022, we have been doing research together with Hideo Saito's lab, holding study sessions and camps.
Most of the research topics covered by the Igawa Lab are related to the field of "computer vision. This is a research field in which computers are made to recognize and understand the world using images and video (and other signals) as input. Recently, this is one of the fields that have attracted a great deal of attention both academically and for industry, and we hope to establish research themes that are academically new but also useful to society. In addition to research in the field of computer vision, we also conduct research on image/video processing, sensing, and machine learning.
The laboratory is located in the 24th building, room 308. It is a bright room facing south. We are a newly established lab, so we hope that you will enjoy the new changes. Please come to our lab information session!
Computer Vision
It is a research field that deals with how well computers can understand digital images or videos.
Sensing
It is a research field that measures, quantifies, and processes various types of information using sensors.
Machine Learning
Machine learning is performed based on information gathered by CV and Sensing. Most of the members are dealing with it.
Others...
There are variety of other related research topics. We aim for our lab members to research about diverse topics and to collaborate with each other.
Textbook reading/presentation(Only spring semester)
During February and March, we take 4 weeks to read, implement and present about a CV textbook. This is called "Kiso Rinko" and its aim is for B3 students to understand the basics of CV and to learn about the presentation skills. B4 will be guiding you through this, and it is a great chance for B3 and B4 to get along with each other.
Machine learning Rinko
After "Kiso Rinko", students will take a 45 week course about machine learning and deep learning. Students will take turns presenting about the assigned lecture.
Seminar・meeting
Once the research has started, two students each week have an opportunity to present their progress on a fixed day of the week. This is a great opportunity for students to learn new knowledge, as they can hear what research topics other lab members are doing.
Main Rinko(Required subject)
In late July, students will present about a research paper that is closely related to your own research topic. In June, there will be practice sessions for the main rinko.
Summer vacation
Let's enjoy research during the summer! In 2022, we held a two-day summer camp with Hideo Saito Lab in late September.
Graduation Project
Students will engage in each research projects for graduation thesis presentation held in January. Each student consults with Professor Isogawa and decides on a theme based on his or her own interests and proceeds with research.
Spring vacation
After graduation thesis, students will submit papers to national and international conferences.
Here's a sneak peak of 24-308 on the Yagami campus!
It is a comfortable environment for research.
Q. How often do you go to the lab?
A. Whether you work at the lab or at home is your choice. But most of the lab members come 3 times a week. We have no "core time", which means a day we must go.
Q. What programming language do you use?
A. Mainly Python. There are opportunities to use C++ and Matlab as well.
Q. How do you decide your research topic?
A. You will discuss with Assistant Professor Isogawa and decide the topic of your interest.
Q. I am concerned that there are only a few senior students as it is a newly established laboratory.
A. We collaborated with Hideo Saito Laboratory, and the senior students from Saito lab advised us through the research. We plan to work in cooperation with them to some extent in the next fiscal year as well.
Q. What is the research environment?
A. We are provided with a desktop PC. There are also many servers with high-performance GPUs.
We can buy equipment that needs for research!
