We present two multi-modal panoramic 3D outdoor (MPO) datasets for semantic place categorization with six categories: forest, coast, residential area, urban area and indoor/outdoor parking lot. The fi…
As the amount of used home appliances is expected to increase despite the decreasing labor force in Japan, there is a need to automate disassembling processes at recycling plants. The automation of di…
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is widely used in dental and maxillofacial imaging, but low-dose acquisition introduces strong, spatially varying noise that degrades soft-tissue visibility and ob…
In recent years, many countries, including Japan, have rapidly aging populations, making the preservation of seniors' quality of life a significant concern. For elderly people with impaired physical a…
The transition from 5G to 6G requires frequency-dependent, physically consistent radio channel models across the FR1--FR3 span, particularly in the under-explored $4$--$8$~GHz region targeted in the c…
Spaceborne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems, such as NASA's Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI), provide forest structure for global carbon assessments. However, geolocation unce…
In a world increasingly powered by renewables and aiming for greenhouse gas-neutral industrial production, the future competitiveness of todays top manufacturing countries is questioned. This study ap…
This paper presents an AI-driven IoT robotic teleoperation system designed for real-time remote manipulation and intelligent visual monitoring, tailored for smart city applications. The architecture i…
We present VEGA, a vehicle-adaptive energy-aware routing system for electric vehicles (EVs) that integrates physics-informed parameter estimation with RL-based charge-aware path planning. VEGA consist…
This paper presents a traffic state estimation (TSE) method in congestion for distributed fiber-optic sensing (DFOS). DFOS detects vehicle driving vibrations along the optical fiber and obtains their …
Since 2018, East Japan Railway Company and Hitachi, Ltd. have been working to replace human inspections with IoT-based monitoring. The purpose is Labor-saving required for equipment inspections and pr…
Robot teleoperation (RTo) has emerged as a viable alternative to local control, particularly when human intervention is still necessary. This research aims to study the distance effect on user percept…
Parkinsons Disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder that primarily affects motor functions and can lead to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia in its advanced stages. With approxim…
Developing computer vision-based rice phenotyping techniques is crucial for precision field management and accelerating breeding, thereby continuously advancing rice production. Among phenotyping task…
High-definition maps (HD maps) are detailed and informative maps capturing lane centerlines and road elements. Although very useful for autonomous driving, HD maps are costly to build and maintain. Fu…
High-resolution land cover mapping plays a crucial role in addressing a wide range of global challenges, including urban planning, environmental monitoring, disaster response, and sustainable developm…
Science laboratory automation enables accelerated discovery in life sciences and materials. However, it requires interdisciplinary collaboration to address challenges such as robust and flexible auton…
In recent years, labor shortages due to the declining birthrate and aging population have become significant challenges at construction sites in developed countries, including Japan. To address these …
Robots are being created each year with the goal of integrating them into our daily lives. As such, there is an interest in research in evaluating the trust of humans toward robots. In addition, teleo…
We consider management of the fish species Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis, a major inland fishery resource in Japan playing important roles from economic, cultural, and recreational viewpoints. We f…
