ABOUT ME

Currently, I am working as a data scientist at Rakuten Group, Inc. Before that, I graduated from The University of Aizu with a Ph.D. in computer science and engineering in 2024. During my PhD, I was fortunate to be supervised by Professor Anh Pham at the Computer Communications Laboratory (CCL).

My doctoral research entitled “AI-empowered Control and Management of UAV-Assisted Wireless Networks” investigated a new approach that integrates machine learning techniques (deep learning and reinforcement learning) into the resource management and deployment of UAV-aided communication networks. The two focuses were optimizing network resource allocation and adaptive deployment of aerial base stations to enable mobile edge computing and internet from space in next-generation networks (5G and Beyond).
