About Me
Kazuhiro Yamashita
I am a graduate student at the Principle of Software Languages (POSL) in the Graduate School and Faculty of Information Science and Electrical Engineering at Kyushu University in Fukuoka, Japan.
I am currently pursuing my PhD degree under the supervision of Professor Naoyasu Ubayashi and Associate Professor Yasutaka Kamei.
My research interests include: software engineering, data mining, mining software repositories (MSR).
