I am an associate professor at the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research (ISIR), Osaka Univeristy (Osaka, Japan).
I am also a research fellow of PRESTO (Precursory Research for Embryonic Science and Technology) by Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST).
I received my Ph.D. degree from the University of Tokyo in 2008.
My primary research interests lie in combinatorial methods for machine learning and statistical modeling for time-series data.
I am particularly interested in submodularity in machine learning, learning dynamical systems, statistical causal analysis, change-point detection in time-series data, bioinformatics and data-mining for engineering systems.
