Spoken language is the most fundamental communication method. We learn the basic mechanism of speech production and hearing, and discuss the recent progress of the speech and language information processing systems and services.
(Prof. Mano)
Read the syllabus. 60minutes
Review recent speech and language interfaces in the Internet. 120minutes
2. Reporting on speech and language information processing.
(Prof. Mano)
Prepare your reports or homework according to the professor's instruction. 190minutes
3. A few industrial applications (micro/nano manufacturing, micro/nano operation, vibration control, etc.) of the advanced control theory will be introduced.
(Prof. Chen)
Basic feedback knowledge is needed. 190minutes
4. Reporting on industrial applications of the advanced control theory.
(Prof. Chen)
Prepare your reports or homework according to the professor's instruction. 190minutes
5. Synchronization is an important nonlinear phenomenon. In this theme, some examples (synchronization is seen in the natural environment, in our body and in electric circuit) will be introduced, and students will learn its application for various fields.
(Assist. Prof. Ioka)
Study the definition of synchronization. 190minutes
6. Reporting on syncronization of nonlinear phenomena.
(Assist. Prof. Ioka)
Prepare your reports or homework according to the professor's instruction. 190minutes
7. Black holes are now understood as a fundamental element in our universe. I will show how we know the existence of black holes which cannot be directly observed. Recent results on black holes based on X-ray observations will also be introduced.
(Assoc. Prof. Kubota)
