Global Seismicity Dynamics and Data-Driven Science

Mitsuhiro Toriumi is a senior researcher at the Japan Agency of Marine – Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC). He was chief scientist of the board of innovation center of JAMSTEC and studied application of data-driven science and machine learning for global and regional seismicity. He was the research director of the Institute for Research on Earth Evolution (IFREE) and a professor in the Department of Complex Science and Engineering and a professor in the Faculty of Science, The University of Tokyo. During his early career, he was an associate professor of the Faculty of Science of Ehime University and an assistant professor of The University of Tokyo. He is an invited professor of the Open University of Japan. He has published and edited several books in the field of petrology, rheology, earth science, and solid earth science. He is a committee member of the Research Organization of Information and Systems of Japan and an adviser in Core Research for Evolutionary Science and Technology (Information and Measurement). He has been awarded the Geological Society of Japan Award.
