Researcher

Koji Tsuda

Koji Tsuda researches molecular informatics. His shared team work combines automatic design methods with experiments by collaborating scientists. Tsuda coauthored a 2021 study of machine-learning-guided library design for enzyme evolution. The paper examines how training-data composition affects exploration of sequence space. In June 2022, Tsuda coauthored work on a fluorescent molecule designed with quantum-chemical computation and machine learning. His team programme develops AI methods for functional biomolecules and inorganic compounds. It studies Bayesian optimization and Monte Carlo tree search and synthesizes designed materials with experimental scientists.
