Jinhua She earned his Ph.D. degree in engineering from Tokyo
Institute of Technology, Japan, in 1993. In 1993, he joined the School
of Engineering, Tokyo University of Technology, Tokyo, 192-0982,
Japan, where he is currently a professor. His research interests
include thigh-performance technology for mechatronics, the theory
and applications of advanced control, the theory and applications of
repetitive control, the applications of computational intelligence in
the control of industrial processes, motion control of robots, assistive
technology for next-generation of rehabilitation, and Internet-based
engineering education. He received the International Federation of
Automatic Control Engineering Practice Paper Prize in 1999 (jointly
with M. Wu and M. Nakano).
Daisuke Chugo received the M.S. Eng. degree in mechanical
engineering from the Tokyo University of Science, Tokyo, Japan, in
2002, and the Dr. Eng. degree in science engineering from Saitama
University, Saitama, Japan, in 2005.,In 2005, he was a Postdoctoral
Researcher with the University of Tokyo, Tokyo. From 2006 to
2008, he was an Assistant Professor with the University of Electro-
Communications, Chofu, Japan, where he became a Senior Lecturer
in 2009 and an Associate Professor in 2013. Since 2020, he has
been a Professor with the School of Engineering, Kwansei Gakuin
University, Sanda, Japan. His research interests include assistive
robotics, service robotics, distributed autonomous robotic systems,
and cognitive ergonomics. He is a Member of the Robotics Society
of Japan, the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, the Society
of Instrument and Control Engineers, and the Institute of Electrical
Engineers of Japan.
Sho Yokota earned his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical
engineering from Hosei University, Tokyo, Japan, in 2003 and 2006,
respectively, and a second Ph.D. degree in robotics from Université
de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, France, in 2009. He is an
associate professor with the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering,
Toyo University, Tokyo, 192-0982, Japan. His research interests
include human-system interactions, assistive systems and devices,
and robotics.
