Making cameras see in the dark, and phones understand human motion.

A snapshot of what I’m working on, as of September 2026.

• Preparing my talk for IEEE GCCE 2026 in October, on re-defining Japan’s “vanishing municipalities” with multidimensional clustering and small language models, joint work with Keito Inoshita of Kansai University.
• Getting Beacon, our fully offline edge-AI inspection system for dark environments, ready for Kigyoka Koshien, NICT’s national student startup competition, in March 2027.
• Taking Kyudo AI, the smartphone-only kyudo coaching app, from Lean Launchpad Nagoya 2026 toward the national Lean Launchpad final, also in March 2027.
• Continuing the regional-data work: cleaning national statistics, clustering municipalities, and fine-tuning small language models that run entirely on local hardware.
• Studying as a third-year student in the Information Science and Technology Department at Yuge College, on Yuge Island.
