About

Welcome! I am a research scientist in NTT communicaton science laboratories. I always seek a new way to capture/understand/control something intangible. My research area is across acoustics, optics, measurement and imaging, signal processing, and machine learning. I am currently working on developing a next-generation sound measurement using light. I am very open to any discussions and collaborations. Feel free to contact me.
