From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kenjiro Kimura (木村 建次郎, Kimura Kenjiro, Born in 1978 ) is a Japanese applied physicist, professor, Kobe University, Center for Mathematical and Data Sciences [1], and CEO of Integral Geometry Science Inc [2]. Ph.D. in Engineering (Kyoto University, 2006). Principal investigator.

He is engaged in research on subsurface imaging and inverse problems. He was the first in the world to successfully derive an analytical solution to the inverse problem of wave scattering, which was an unsolved problem in the history of applied mathematics, and established the multiple path scattering field theory. He also succeeded in deriving an analytical solution to the inverse problem of the static magnetic field-current in storage batteries, and founded Integral Geometry Science Inc. to implement these research results in society[3].
