Research Summary

Jun  Seita(M.D., Ph.D.)

We study the application of deep learning to medical and health data. Our main research themes are prediction of future health conditions using time series data, estimation of physical conditions from various sensor data and image data, and generation of medical data and privacy protection using deep generative models.
