More about Education and Research Center for Future Value Creation

The information revolution has greatly expanded our methods for solving various problems in the world and also provided us with the means for creating new value. Information science and technology has the potential to provide new value which human beings could not have imagined previously.
The ultimate goal of the Graduate School is to create new “informatics.” In order to further develop and carry out this mission, we established the Future Value Creation Research Center, Graduate School of Informatics in 2017 and reorganized Education and Research Center for Future Value Creation. A number of new research projects, including “Manufacturing Informatics,” “Natural Language Processing,” “Positive Informatics,” “Bio-Material-Agriculture Informatics,” and “Sign Studies” have been launched since then. We have also been tackling artificial intelligence for explaining decision basis and language understanding.
