Cooperative Research 1

The cooperative research with your company started in 2005. I was working at Niigata University when Mr. Iwata came to my laboratory and proposed consignment study. With this starting point, we have been doing cooperative research on biometrics for about 10 years. Together we have done presentations at conferences domestically and overseas, as well as several patent applications.
Especially when I worked at LORIA Institude in France, lots of international exchange became possible through cooperative research with your company. I think it is brilliant. Let's carry on the research. Thank you for your support as a good research partner in the furure.

Cooperative Research 2

[Overview of Cooperative Research with Your Company So Far]

We have been doing cooperative research using voice as key, not only in voice interaction and speaker identification, but also in paralinguistic and state estimation basing on voice. In the development of bipedal robot with speaker identification function,which is based on voice, and voice interaction function, we have realized the function of switching speech response, limiting conversation content according to partner. Moreover, with application example of classifying and estimating human status technique basing on voice, in terms of alcohol intake, testimation technique of "drinking degree" ,which focuses on voice intonation and sound change, has been developed.

[Future Plan and Expectations of Cooperative Research with Your Company]

I would like to continue the cooperative relationship in the future, not only binding needs of industry and university, but also developing new technique on the ground of flexible mindset. In addition, with domestic and overseas network in industry and university, it is one of the attactions having interaction with people in various fields through cooperative rearch.
