Outline Activities
Main research topics are kind of cyber-physical systems (CPS: Cyber-Physical Systems) that improves human life, where real-world sensing technology, cloud data processing technology, networking technology, and a variety of information technologies are combined dynamically. We call such a system as Humanophilic systems. Humanophilic is a coined word that combines the suffix “philic”, which means human-friendly. In the laboratory, we are focusing on the research on the behavior recognition of people using sensors (IoT) and machine learning (AI), and we are conducting a wide range of applications from the development of new sensors to the implementation of applications in order to realize the humanophilic systems.

In addition to the sensing of human external states (behavior and activity), the recognization of human internal states (emotions and stress) becomes a part of topics. We always consider and discuss what kind of sensors can be used, what kind of algorithms are most suitable. In recent years, as research ahead of behavior recognition, we start to focus on the behavior change support system (BCSS) because information technology can change our behavior better.

Many conventional methods are dependent on the density of people in the area, which is easily estimated by counting the people entering or exiting the area. However, a high density does not always mean an increase in activity, as certain people are simply passing the area at a given time. The primary goal of this study was to introduce a set of indicators for measuring the bustle of the area, which we call 'Nigiwai,' from pedestrian movement by using an analogy from classical kinematics. Such indicators can be used to measure the impact of promotional events and to optimize the design of the area. Our novel indicators were evaluated with simulated pedestrian scenarios and were demonstrated to distinguish shopping scenarios from those in which people move around without shopping successfully, even when the latter scenarios had much higher densities. The indicators were computed solely from the pedestrian trajectory, which can easily be obtained from ordinary sensors using deep learning-based techniques. As a demonstration with real data, we applied our method to a video of a street and provided a visualization of the indicators..
