Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories is the North American arm of the Corporate R&D organization of the Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. As an open corporate lab, we collaborate with other research organizations, publish our results and measure our performance by the impact we have on the Mitsubishi Electric Corporation and the world. We conduct application motivated basic research and advanced development in the areas below:

	Digital Communications - High speed mobile communications, ubiquitous networking, reliable wireless, next generation standards and new applications.
	Multimedia - Efficient representation, transmission, security, processing and interaction of multimedia; including video compression, display processing, information coding for security, compressive sensing, and speech processing.
	Data Analytics - Predictive analytics (statistical machine learning, data analysis); decision analytics (optimization and control); and software infrastructure (distributed software systems, data stream processing).
	Imaging - Developing and applying novel methods for sensing people, objects & events; extending what cameras can do by adding motion, force, ultrasound, 3D & other sensors to quantify the world.
	Mechatronics - Advanced control algorithms, system dynamics, modeling & performance analysis, mechatronics design, innovative system concepts, and 2D/3D adaptively-sampled distance fields applications.
	Algorithms - Solution methods for optimization problems involving very large numbers of variables in the areas of information theory & coding, stochastic optimization, inference & learning, and sensing & perception.
