A character creation system using sensitivity rule extraction is demonstrated. A character-creation system based on extracted sensitivity rules is demonstrated. A user evaluates the character that the system creates. By repeating the evaluation, the system automatically learns and analyzes the user's sensitivity and taste. Finally, the system makes the user's favorite character using the extracted sensitivity rules.

Conversation with humor or laugh can give us affluence and is indispensable for our daily life. Here we introduce automatic dialog generation systems. One is an automatic Manzai comic dialog generation system in which ordinary sentences are converted to funny sentences using boke (funny man) and tsukkomi (straight man).

Our system captures 3D motion data of human's behaviors when he/she is interacting with a robot.

A robot mounted on one's shoulder makes him/her share experiences with a remote user. Also, an active display shows information changing the posture of itself.

A prototype of a visualization provenance management system called VIDELICET is introduced, which allows us to record, trace and reuse visual analyses of numerical datasets arising in measurement and simulation.

A distributed energy system with renewable-energy generators, e.g., PV and wind turbine, is one of the most popular research topics worldwide. We propose safe, reliable cooperative, and distributed control, and estimation and prediction methodologies for electrical power network systems with renewable-energy generators.

In designing three-dimensional space, the overhead view and the viewpoint of a person in that space are used. Our system assists in designing three-dimensional space by actualizing simultaneous interactions from these viewpoints by using two types of touch panels.

One of the most secure methods for network access control is EAP-TLS in which users and servers use digital certificates. However, it is troublesome to manage users' digital certificates. In EAP-TTLS, users can use password and servers use digital cert

Recently, studies on the development of autonomous robot cars have been carried out, but most studies target the development of four-wheel vehicles. We construct an autonomous robot bike that remains stable while resting and moves stably at low speeds. This robot bike is targeted for entertainment purposes, e.g., the leading vehicle in a marathon.

Recently, a computer diagnosis by image analysis attracts the attention in medical field. We target on construction of system for a pathological diagnosis, a clinical diagnosis, nondestructive inspection and so on. Current candidates are a prostate cancer, a lung tumor, an uterus cancer, brain damage by stroke.

We propose a new architecture for power grids. It separates the existing power grid into power generation systems and power transmission systems. EVNO (Energy Virtual Network Operator) efficiently controls distributed energy sources and creates a virtual power generation system. In this booth, we show the effects of the management of EVNO.

We propose the Ubiquitous Grid Networking Environment (uGrid) as a next-generation service in cloud computing. In uGrid, IP addresses are allocated in devices, software functions, contents, and so on, all over the world. Further, services are provided by the mash-up passes that combine these on the network.

RMT Processor integrates a processor core (RMT PU), which executes eight threads simultaneously based on their priority. It supports four real-time communication links (Responsive Links), various I/O devices (e.g., Space Wire, PCI-X, IEEE1394, and PWM), an IPC controller, and a run-time execution tracing.

This avatar system is based on head pose estimation and facial expression recognition using a web camera. Thanks to the fast and accurate technology, avatars can express natural demeanor. Our system also can be applied to many applications such as video-conference systems.

Wireless LANs have become popular due to the popularity of smart phones. However, a small number of channels is shared by many wireless LAN equipments. Sanada laboratory focuses on cognitive radio technology that estimates the surrounding radio environment. On the basis of the cognition of the environment, reliable wireless LANs can be realized.

We have proposed an active optical access network (ActiON) employing high-speed optical switches that ensure a higher subscriber number and longer transmission distance than those in the case of the conventional PON. We will describe a next-generation photonic multicast delivery technology with ultrahigh-speed optical switches.

The MiDORi technology presented by the Yamanaka Laboratory is a network-control approach for network-wide energy saving. It applies traffic engineering (TE) to aggregate traffic and power-off network links, thus reducing energy consumption.

We present recent studies on video-streaming services that consider the priority of data and network security using reputation mechanism by each user in P2P networks. The goal of our studies is to build an efficient and secure network.
