Academic Achievements
  • Oct 1, 2025: Japanese translation of Kevin Murphy’s textbook “Probabilistic Machine Learning: An Introduction” will be published soon from Asakura Publishing. Sep 19, 2025: Three papers accepted by NeurIPS2025. Mar 28, 2025: Grant proposal to JST-BOOST accepted. Feb 25, 2025: Moved to the Institute of Statistical Mathematics as an associate professor. Jan 23, 2025: Three new papers accepted by AISTATS2025, and two papers accepted by ICLR2025.
Research Experience
  • Currently an Associate Professor at the Institute of Statistical Mathematics, and also an Associate Professor at the Graduate University for Advanced Studies (SOKENDAI). Additionally, a Specially Appointed Associate Professor at Tohoku University (under JST BOOST), a Visiting Scientist at RIKEN AIP Sequential Decision Making Team, and a Visiting Researcher at OIST (MLDS Unit).
Background
  • Research interests: Learning theory (classification-calibrated losses, proper scoring rule, property elicitation; class probability estimation, probability calibration; learning dynamics, gradient descent; convex analysis, information geometry), representation learning (contrastive learning, robust learning), online convex optimization. Profile: Currently an Associate Professor at the Institute of Statistical Mathematics, and holds several affiliate or visiting positions at other institutions.
Miscellany
  • Personal interests include travel, with plans to attend IBIS in Okinawa from Nov 12-15, 2025, and NeurIPS in San Diego from Dec 2-7, 2025.
