Masataka Nakayama ｜ Senior Lecturer ｜ Cognitive science,Cultural psychology
My research interest is collectively emerging dynamics of mind/”kokoro”. I investigate different levels of dynamics, 1) emergence of cognition via collective computation by interconnected neurons, 2) emergence of cognition via interaction with environment, and 3) emergence of culture via interacting agents who recursively work as social environment to each other. I am tackling these problems with methodology of psychological experiment and survey as well as artificial neural network modeling and statistical modeling.
