| CV | 日本語
I am a postdoctoral researcher (University Assistant) at the Institute of Computer Graphics and Vision (ICG), Graz University of Technology, Austria, and also a Guest Lecturer (Global) at Keio University, Japan. I received my B.S. (2011), M.S. (2013), and PhD (2016) in engineering from Ritsumeikan University, Japan. Before joining the ICG, I worked as a Research Fellowship for Young Scientists (DC-1) from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) during my PhD degree, and I started my career as a JSPS Research Fellowship for Young Scientists (PD) at Keio University, Japan.
My research interest lies in Vision, Graphics, Imaging, Displays, and Machine Learning that enable Mixed Reality and understanding user perception under the modified vision. I have also been eager to develop Mixed Reality applications for improving remote collaboration, education, entertainment, and filmmaking.
I won the best journal paper, conference paper, demo, and presentation awards at international scientific events, including IEEE VR, IEEE ISMAR, KELVAR, and KJMR.
