Computational neuroscience based on statistical mechanics and its application
Current Research
We study brain functions such as memory and vision using methods of statistical mechanics. We also develop statistical-mechanical informatics focusing on the similarity between the framework of Bayesian inference and that of statistical mechanics. We have recently started to promote ‘Data-Driven Science’ for the purpose of establishing an efficient methodology to extract scientific knowledge from high-dimensional data.
