Research & things I build

Research programs, hardware, open tools for running experiments, and the engineering side projects that keep my skills sharp.

Brain MRI × driving safety with interpretable ML

Voxel-based morphometry of structural MRI in cohorts of older drivers assessed on actual vehicles, combined with cross-validated feature selection (RFECV), regression, and SHAP explanations to identify gray-matter biomarkers of real-world driving safety — with a DBQ-based study of driving tendencies published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience (2026).

Research · Large cohorts

Gray-matter correlates of fatigue & ADHD traits

Large-scale VBM studies in thousands of healthy adults, linking regional gray matter volume to physical and mental fatigue (including differences between desk and non-desk workers), adult ADHD traits, and real-world traffic crashes.

Fitts' Law × EEG with age simulation

An EEG research line on motor aging: comparing motor execution in virtual and real environments toward multimodal modeling with Fitts' Law (presented at IEEE EMBS NER 2025), with LSL-synchronized pipelines, age-simulation suits, and a PRISMA-ScR scoping review pre-registered on OSF.

Research · Hardware

Air-based interaction: pneumatic input & haptics

My doctoral research line: input and haptic-feedback devices driven by air, including the AirSqueeze game controller, the Air-Vis physical display, and fMRI-compatible interfaces built from non-ferromagnetic materials and evaluated on a 3.0 T scanner.

Software · Open tool

Browser-based research questionnaire platform

A self-contained web platform for administering validated instruments (EHI, ATI, IPAQ, SSQ, KSS, NASA-TLX, SEQ, SUS) as a single HTML file hosted on GitHub Pages, with responses collected through a Google Apps Script backend. No installs, no servers.

Research · Networked systems

DDS discovery protocols for mission-critical systems

Bloom-filter-based discovery and QoS configuration for the Data Distribution Service in large naval networks, cutting the memory and traffic cost of node discovery. Master's research published in Computer Standards & Interfaces and IEEE ETFA.

Personal projects

Made for family and friends

Small tools I build outside work, for my own household and the people around me. They are separate from my research and teaching, and are shared as is, with no warranty. All personal projects →

おうちプリント — kids' worksheets

Open printable A4 maths worksheets for elementary grades 4–5, handmade and free for any family to download and print. One subject — maths — dressed in rotating real-world contexts: astronomy, history, economics, IT, basketball. A new set every week. Japanese only, with its own blueprint-style design.

Furusato Nouzei Planner

A calculator that estimates income tax, next year's resident tax and the furusato nouzei donation limit under Japan's 2026 tax rules. It also shows when a tax-return claim costs more than one-stop because the deduction drops your income-tax bracket. For reference only, with every source cited.
