Research topics
Nonlinear time series analysis:
I am interested in developing methods of nonlinear time series analysis
and applying them to various nonlinear phenomena.
Nonlinear time series analysis provides not only useful information
on the underlying dynamics but means of their prediction and control.
So far, I have been developing methods using delay coordinates,
recurrence plots, surrogate tests, symbolic analysis,
and point process analysis.
I have also applied these methods to real datasets measured from neurons,
brains, heartbeats, winds, solar irradiation, cancers, amoebas, economies,
and earthquakes.
