Risk Analysis Research Center

The Risk Analysis Research Center is pursuing a scientific approach to the study of the increased uncertainty and risk associated with the increasing globalization of the society and economy. The center is also constructing a network for risk analysis in order to contribute to the creation of a reliable and safe society. The center organized following ten projects.

This project constructs databases and research environment for cooperative risk researches.

This project studies the mathematical statistics required in the risk analysis including extreme value theory, copula theory, and multiple comparisons.

This project studies the statistical methodologies related to environmental risk and environmental monitoring.

This Project focuses on mathematical modeling and analysis for natural and socio-economic issues of resource management within deterministic and stochastic frameworks.

This project aims to develop the statistical framework and methodology of quantitative risk evaluation for substances ingested by the human body.

This project studies statistical methodology to evaluate risk and benefit of personalized/predictive medicine in clinical trials.

This project contribute to understand genome information by developing methodologies to discover useful knowledge and quantify latent risk.

This project pursues solving suicide and its related mental health problems through application of spatial-temporal analysis, factorial design and visualization.

The project develops statistical models for earthquake occurrences, techniques of probabilistic earthquake forecasting and evaluation methods for forecasting performance.

This project explores the use of statistical modeling methods to quantify the risks involved with financial instruments and insurance products.
