Visiting Student Announcement

Posted: April 19, 2026

We are pleased to announce that Ms. Nafisa Sadaf Hriti, a student from the University of Alberta, is invited to Hitotsubashi University to participate in an international academic exchange workshop hosted by the Hayashi Laboratory.

The workshop aims to foster international academic collaboration through research discussions on explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) for frailty identification, a topic that aligns closely with the ongoing research activities in our lab on data ecosystems and institutional design. Through this exchange, we seek to advance knowledge exchange and explore interdisciplinary methods across institutions.

Participants from our side will be graduate students of the Hayashi Laboratory, who will engage in collaborative discussions and joint sessions together with Ms. Hriti throughout the workshop.

The workshop details are as follows:

• Duration: June 25 to June 29, 2026
