I and professor Masami Hagiya (Tokyo Univ.) have found a research group of Natural Computing in JSAI: and I've considered "what is Nature + Computing" then proposed computerized nature by the algorithm; the universal language in Nature is the tactile sense, so we proposed the Tactile Score. Tactile Score is a breakthrough to open up novel research area "Tactileology".. Please see "Mission" below

人工知能学会に自然計算の研究グループを東大の萩谷教授と立ち上げ，自然と計算について考えてきました．私は自然のアルゴリズムによる計算系化を提案しています．自然の共通言語は「触覚」なので，触覚を記述するための「触譜」を提案しています．触譜がブレークスルーとなり「触覚学」という研究分野が拓かれました．

I proposed computational chemistry and by using it, I succeeded to create computational living systems in PC; they evolve themselves from single cells to multi-cell and can adjust to environmental change. And also I can implement chemically this system by using "real" DNA molecules... it may not be an Artificial Life but Real Life.

私は計算機内に化学反応系をつくり，そのなかに生命体を創発させることに成功しました．この生命体は自ら単細胞から多細胞へと進化を行いさらに環境の変動に対して適用します．私はさらにこのモデルをDNA分子により化学的に実現しました...これはもうArtificial Lifeではなく，Real Lifeといえるかもしれません．

上述した「生命の起源」の計算モデルについてNASA 宇宙生物学が主催のワークショップ(ハーバード大）での講演．この話題は時を経ても興味をもっていただけるようです．

「ハーバード界隈ではしばらく，君のモデルの話でもちきりだったよ」と後から言われました．嬉しくも恐縮．

I proposed a novel method for analyzing large scale complex networks and this method has applied to analyze protein interactions in yeast then prevail hidden structures and also my method can discover drug-targeting proteins

私は大規模ネットワークを解析する方法を提案しました．この方法は酵母のタンパク質ネットワークの解析に応用され，複雑な構造に内在していた「秩序」が発見されました．また私の方法は製薬の標的タンパク質の発見方法としても有用なことが示されました．

I proposed a computational model, Abstract Rewriting System on Multisets, ARMS as an abstract model of Chemical Reactions. This model is based on Computational Algebra and Physical Chemistry. Also ARMS a computational expression of the philosophy of Minakata Kumagusu, Japanese Naturalist. He is a monster, published 51 papers in Nature. ARMS did a simulation of Belouzov-Zhabotinsky reaction by using the symbol rewritings and made a "boom" of BZ reaction in Computational Algebra and in some PhD thesis treated ARMS (in EU).

化学反応の計算モデルとして計算代数と物理化学を基礎としたARMS計算モデルを提案しました．この計算モデルは南方熊楠(51本の論文をNatureで発表した知の巨人）の哲学の計算論的な表現になっています．ARMSの研究の当初，Belousov-Zhabotinskii反応という非線形化学反応を"文字書き換え”でシミュレーションしたのが注目され，計算代数でBZ反応が流行したり，ARMSを基にした博士学位論文（欧州）が書かれたりしています．

An artificial chemistry is a chemical-like system that usually consists of objects, called molecules, that interact according to rules resembling chemical reaction rules. Artificial chemistries are created and studied in order to understand fundamental properties of chemical systems, including prebiotic evolution, as well as for developing chemical computing systems. Artificial chemistry is a field within computer science wherein chemical reactions—often biochemical ones—are computer-simulated, yielding insights on evolution, self-assembly, and other biochemical phenomena. go to WikiPedia

大学院生の時に提案した化学反応の抽象計算モデル Abstract Rewriting System on Multisets ですが... AROB そしてALife Vという日本で開催された人工生命の国際会議で発表して以来飽かずにコツコツと基礎からつくってきました．

プロの漫画家でもあった大学院生のSさんと，進化的アルゴリズムにより絵画を進化させる試みを行なった．この研究はNew Scientist(英国)以外にも，フランスの雑誌からの取材もあり，また「アートに対する挑戦」として，知らないうちに小さな論争になっていたりした．．

The essence of natural computing is aesthetics; for example, in cooking, one of the most common forms of natural computation, the decision to add salt, and how much, is based on the aesthetics of taste. Because touch perception is instinctively related to a sense of beauty, the aesthetics of tactile sense are considered as algorithms by using the Tactile Score, which encodes tactile sensation. This book will appeal not only to researchers of natural computing or aesthetics, but also those working in ergonomic design, haptic-Kansei engineering, philosophy, design and art.

This book deals with one of the most novel advances in natural computing, namely, in the field of tactile sense analysis. Massage, which provides relaxation and stimulation for human beings, is analyzed in this book for the first time by encoding the motions and tactile senses involved. The target audience is not limited to researchers who are interested in natural computing but also includes those working in ergonomic design, biomedical engineering, Kansei engineering, and cognitive science.

Based on General Computational Science GCS, Aesthetics is the core of computation; in this book we consider GCS and propose the Computational Aesthetics which is not relating to prior considerations by Barkov or Kawamoto

From "BOOK database Japan" this book introduce amazing method of beauty treatments, it can dramatically improve your skin condition by hands massaging.

--> I did write book with R. Suzuki and took photographs, did book design

Our Research activities in Natural Computing, (Harness computing), Tactile Score, etc are introduced. I did design the cover of this book; the graphic of the book is the scientific visualization (related to the Lotoka-Volterra equations). ​ He proposed novel Aesthetics based on our "Harness computing".
