Assistant Professor at Kanagawa University (Faculty of Informatics), Japan.
My research interests focus on data-oriented modeling of musical structures. I am also involved in studies of Natural Language Processing (NLP), experiencing approaches for sequential data and syntactic structure, which are common to both music and language.
