Biography
Dr. Yoshitaka Kimura received the Master of Science degree in mathematics in 1982 and the M.D. degree in 1997 from Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan.From 1998 to 2004, he was a Lecturer in the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Tohoku University Graduate school of Medicine. From 2003 to 2004, he was a Visiting Researcher at New York University Medical Center. Since 2004, he has been a Professor in the Telecommunication and Information Technology of Tohoku University Biomedical Engineering Research Organization. His research focuses on detection, processing, and interpretation of fetal electrocardiogram for the clinical diagnosis and his interests concern combination of the information theory with the infinite dimensional geometry to analyze the nonlinear and nonstationary signals.
Research Interest
