With the mission of “Creating Intelligence,” the Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory is active in a wide range of research areas, including the development of world models and other fundamental technologies for deep learning and beyond, robotics, large-scale language models, and social proofs of algorithms. The number of full-time researchers has exceeded 10 (and will be continuously increased), and 14 papers have been accepted to top conferences such as ICML, ICLR, NAACL, and ICRA in FY2023 ( for a list of recently accepted papers, click here )
To further expand these activities, we are holding the first phase of research internships as a new trial. Under the mentorship of leading researchers in various fields, interns will be able to experience research activities in the laboratory, which are usually difficult to see from the outside.

The research internship recently kicked off online.
A total of 15 members participated in this internship, including participants not only from Japan but also from other countries such as Spain and Sweden. At the kick-off, the mentors/interns introduced themselves and their research topics.
The interns, who participate in both online and offline formats, utilize Slack as a communication tool and work closely with their mentors as they conduct their research.
In addition, as a welcome party for the interns, a BBQ was planned and managed mainly by the students assigned to the program.
The interns are scheduled to present the results of their two months of work as a final presentation at the end of September.
We will be posting the details of each intern’s efforts on our blog, so please look forward to it.
