This position is available only for people residing in Japan.

[Company Profile]

Founded in 2014, it is an AI venture company headquartered in Kyoto. They are developing AI for a wide range of customers such as the medical field, manufacturing industry, and infrastructure. It uses sparse modeling to obtain highly accurate results with a small amount of data. It was developed to solve the problem of low prediction accuracy from a small amount of data because conventional AI technology was premised on a large amount of data.

<Diagnostic support> Analysis of patient data, including medical images such as MRI and CT, aims to realize a medical environment that enables early detection of diseases and reduction of the burden on radiologists for quick and accurate diagnosis. They promote joint projects with companies.

<Drug discovery support> They are working on product development aimed at streamlining screening in drug discovery research. They aim to realize a system that accelerates research and development by collaborating with experts to improve the efficiency of screening and providing hints on the mechanism of action of drugs.

<Visual inspection> They provide products that combine AI with robots, lighting, and cameras. They are promoting the introduction of this system in areas where it was difficult to automate with conventional inspection equipment, such as the inspection of automobile parts with complex shapes.

<Predictive maintenance> They are working with equipment manufacturers to realize smart factories with higher productivity by using AI to perform predictive maintenance of equipment based on various sensor data collected from FA equipment such as machine tools.

<Underground exploration> A simple and highly accurate inspection method for underground buried objects is required at construction sites and railway facilities. They are developing an AI to confirm the position of buried objects from ground-penetrating radar images.
