Takayuki Mizuno, an expert in computational social science, has been appointed as a technical advisor for solution development for OSINT.

FRONTEO Inc.
Masahiro Morimoto, President and CEO
2-12-23 Konan, Minato-ku, Tokyo
(Code number: 2158 TSE Mothers)

FRONTEO Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, President: Masahiro Morimoto) has been appointed as an advisory board member of the company by Dr. Takayuki Mizuno (Science) as a technical advisor in the development of solutions for OSINT using AI. I will announce that.

 

As an expert in computational social science and econophysics, Mr. Mizuno is engaged in research on AI that integrates political economy and data science, unravels the global society with complex network analysis, and solves global problems with the power of the economy. is.In recent years, we have been conducting research on OSINT (open source intelligence), paying attention to the background of visualization of social problems and information diffusion by Twitter analysis, and have a lot of knowledge about issues related to open source.

 

FRONTEO is working to solve social issues by utilizing its own AI "KIBIT" that mainly analyzes text and the AI ​​"Concept Encoder" that also supports co-analysis of text and numerical data.Through this appointment as an advisor, FRONTEO will analyze what kind of data should be given to Mr. Mizuno in order to utilize the two AIs of FRONTEO in the OSINT area, how to analyze and what kind of report should be created. We will receive advice from a computational social science perspective on whether it is good or not, and aim to develop a solution for OSINT.
