Welcome to Intelligent Computing Laboratory (Lin Laboratory)

The Intelligent Computing Laboratory was launched at Okayama University in October 2022.

We aim at designing and building Internet-based intelligent collaboration infrastructures and systems that enable autonomous cooperation and interaction among humans, things, and services.

Consequently, we conduct interdisciplinary researches on artificial intelligence (especially multiagent systems) and computing technologies on the Internet. Specifically, we focus on but not limited to following research topics.

• Methodologies on artificial intelligence and multiagent systems
• New technologies for services computing, cloud computing, and Internet of Things (IoT)
• Implementations and applications of real-world intelligent collaboration systems

We welcome undergraduate and graduate students to join our laboratory at Okayama University from 2023. If you are interested in joining or visiting our laboratory, please feel free to contact us.
