Theme Fundamental Theory of Probabilistic Computational Models for Inference Systems
Objectives Probabilistic information processing can give us unexpected capacity in a system constructed from many cooperating elements with randomness. The circumstances are similar to everything in the natural world being made up of a lot of molecules with interactions and fluctuations. The collection of molecules can give rise to unpredictable phenomena. This is often called “More is different” in the physics. In this research plan, we promote research projects for computational intelligent systems under the common concept of “More is different in informatics as well.” Our goal is to establish strong theoretical paradigms for probabilistic information processing to affect information communication technology by means of statistical science and statistical physics. The probabilistic information processing is based on both modeling of problems and design of algorithms, which is often realized as graphical models including Bayesian networks. We develop novel and practical algorithms of probabilistic information processing.
