Class1-Class7: Lectures
Course schedule | Required learning | |
---|---|---|
Class 1 | AI and Data Science Solutions for Operations Optimization(1) | One of the areas where AI and data science are most widely used in business is "production management, logistics, inventory control, etc.” In order to optimize operations in these areas, students will learn through mini-exercises (group discussions) and other methods how to accurately understand abstract business requirements and examine them in a form that can be solved by AI and data science. |
Class 2 | AI and Data Science Solutions for Operations Optimization(2) | One of the areas where AI and data science are most widely used in business is "production management, logistics, inventory control, etc.” In order to optimize operations in these areas, students will learn through mini-exercises (group discussions) and other methods how to accurately understand abstract business requirements and examine them in a form that can be solved by AI and data science. |
Class 3 | Introduction of Automated Construction System as Construction DX in Civil Engineering Works -Attempts to Convert the Construction Site into a Factory | As one of the solutions to problems such as the shortage and aging of on-site workers, Kajima Corporation is working on the development of A4CSEL (Quad Axel), which has automatic operation of construction equipment and optimization of production design and management at its core, aiming to build a production system that ensures safety while providing a stable and continuous supply of social capital. This lecture will introduce their efforts and consider what is needed to change the conventional way of doing things. |
Class 4 | Using Data Science in R&D for an Integrated Chemical Company | With the prosperity of data science, companies are also making efforts to utilize data science in their businesses. This lecture will introduce examples of efforts and applications in the research and development of materials. |
Class 5 | Advance corporate business through AI and data analysis | More than 90% of NTT East's business in Japan is in the corporate market. NTT East serves this market with a sales force of 10,000 people spread across the country. This lecture will explain how AI and data analysis can be used to achieve efficient sales in this vast market. |
Class 6 | Application of image processing technology using stereo cameras to automatic driving | In order to apply image processing technology in general to automobiles for automatic driving applications, etc., it is necessary to provide detailed responses to a number of rare cases, such as dirt on window panes and weather conditions. This lecture will explain the realistic creation of image processing technology that can be trusted as a product. |
Class 7 | AI-based image processing technology for driver assistance systems and automated driving systems | This lecture will include examples of the application of image processing using AI/machine learning technology to the automotive field, such as recognition of vehicles and pedestrians ahead, and the challenges involved in practical application, including Subaru's efforts. |
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
