My interest in bioinformatics began with a computer programming
class which I joined as an undergraduate in biochemistry.
I was deeply attracted to doing programming, even with now incredibly
poor computational environment, such as a slow CPU, a small amount of
memory and a line editor.
Finishing the BS degree in Biochemistry and Biophysics, I embarked
upon a graduate course of computer sciences to satisfy my interest in
computers and software.
After completing the ME degree in information engineering, I
went in with the Machine Learning group of NEC Research Laboratories in Japan.
In NEC I devoted myself to doing research on machine learning and data
mining, developing new techniques in these fields as well as
considering a lot of modern, real-world problems like telecom churn,
campaign management, web access pattern mining and sequence analysis
in bioinformatics.
I received PhD (Doctor of Sciences) in information sciences in the
area of machine learning and bioinformatics, while working with NEC.
I then moved to Institute for Chemical
Research (ICR) in Kyoto
University to focus more on bioinformatics applications and am
currently a professor of the Bioinformatics
Center of ICR, being jointly appointed as a faculty of the School
of Pharmaceutical Sciences of the same university.
