JEMARO intake 2 students defend their thesis at Keio University

And that's a wrap! After having spent two years on the master's programme, the second generation of JEMARO students finished their studies with a thesis defense held at Keio University, Japan, on 20 July.

The 18 students, from various backgrounds and nationalities, arrived in Japan in September 2022. During their first semester, they followed Japanese and elective courses at Keio University while starting to work on their research within one of Keio laboratories. Their second semester was dedicated full time to research, co-supervised by a Japanese and European professor.

With different interests and research objectives, each of the 18 students defended their work after a 2-year long Research Track.


The thesis titles of this second intake were:
 

• English Pronunciation Assessment System with Adaptive Learning Goals and GPT-generated Feedback on a Humanoid Robot
• Design and Control of a Jetpack: A Study in Personal Aerial Mobility
• Multi-Hypergraph Fusion Learning for Emotion Recognition from Bio-Signals and Personality Traits
