Research on AI that Coexists with People and Enhances Human Well-being
We conduct research and development of AI (Artificial Intelligence) that coexists with people and enhances human well-being.
In human communication, not only language but also non-verbal information such as emotions are exchanged, building and maintaining relationships between people. Humans also make moment-by-moment decisions while being influenced by various types of information.
Our research team aims to scientifically uncover these human information processing mechanisms and apply them to AI, with the goal of promoting social participation and enhancing the well-being of diverse populations.
Specifically, we are working on:
- Research on AI that understands the mechanisms of emotional expression and recognition to enhance people’s well-being
- Development of AI that understands human preferences and thought patterns to support better decision-making
- Development of AI to support social communication for people with autism spectrum disorders
Through this research, we aim for AI to integrate more naturally into human society and enrich people’s lives.
