Course schedule/Objectives
| Course schedule | Objectives | |
|---|---|---|
| Class 1 | Sensing technology based on optics, and data and processing methods to address social issues in the areas of medicine, food, and housing. | One third of the time will be allocated to introducing the head office, which has developed and manufactured optical sensors as IoT sensors in the field of medicine, food, and housing, and has developed a business adapted to the needs of various industries, and to the contents related to IoT (sensing), while the remaining 2/3 of the time will be devoted to lectures on data science and AI. |
| Class 2 | Data Application in the Mitsui Fudosan Group | Sharing examples of data-enabled marketing at Mitsui Fudosan Tokyo Dome (subsidiaries) |
| Class 3 | Manufacturing and AI - Machine Tools and AI Application | Manufacturing and AI - Machine Tools and AI Application |
| Class 4 | Manufacturing and AI - Industrial Robots and AI Application | To understand the challenges facing manufacturing and the necessity of AI, as well as the real issues and solutions for AI application in the manufacturing field, through specific examples of applications. The presentation will focus on industrial robots. |
| Class 5 | Challenges and future prospects at ANA such as AI development using in-house data | ・Behind-the-scenes of in-flight meal service for premium class passengers on domestic flights ・Development of an AI prediction system for the number of in-flight meals to be loaded ・Shift creation for airport attendants is actually a difficult task. ・POC for shift creation using mathematical optimization technology |
| Class 6 | Application of Data Science and AI in TOPPAN's DX | This lecture aims to understand and master the use of data in the manufacturing industry in addition to how research in academia is introduced into industry, based on examples of image/document system R&D and manufacturing data analysis/solution development in the printing business |
