Discovery of Object Functionality from Geometry, Motion, and Interactions

Project Associate Professor Oliver van Kaick

Understanding the functionality of objects represented as 3D models can be useful for various applications, such as classification and animation. In this talk, I will discuss our work to automatically discover aspects of the functionality of objects using machine learning methods and an analysis of geometry, motion, and interactions.

Visiting Associate Professor Seijun Hori

The future of super rice development using whole genome information and omics technology

Visiting Associate Professor Seijun Hori

In order to solve agricultural problems such as global climate change and food shortages, there is a need to maintain crop quality and increase yields. We will introduce our efforts and research results for the development of next generation crops by analyzing a large number of rice varieties from the past to the present collected from Japan and overseas using a combination of genomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics and other methods.

Efforts to Reduce Global Warming Gases (GHG) in International Shipping

Visiting Professor Masahiko Furuichi

In October 2020, Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga declared, "By 2050, we aim to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions to zero, that is, to achieve a carbon-neutral, decarbonized society in 2050. CO2 emissions from international shipping account for only about 2.2% of the world's total emissions, but emissions are on the rise as international trade increases. This section introduces various efforts to reduce CO2 emissions from international shipping.
