With the enactment of Paris Agreement and the UN SDGs both in 2015, human society is advancing toward a new paradigm that overcome the negative impact of industrialization and find a new way to motor economic growth. It is full of uncertainty and risks without established solutions with conventional social and economic systems. This course is designated to share advanced ideas and technologies to tackle global risks toward resilient and sustainable society through innovations of technology, business models, policy and regulation.
Mathematics for machine learning and AI.
In fall 2022, we will focus primarily on data visualization as a key component of systems. Also, mathematics such as linear algebra and graph theory will be covered as needed.
Mathematics for machine learning and AI.
In spring 2022, we will focus primarily on the underlying logic for AI, including inference and causality. The works of Judea Pearl will be included.
Graph theory forms a key component of algorithms for GOFAI (good, old-fashioned AI), neural networks and deep learning, and quantum computing, and so will be a major component of the fall.
Also, background material for linear algebra will be covered as needed.
This AP aims to bring together graduate students and faculty throughout SFC doing research joining music/art and science. We will spend a full day one Tuesday (tentatively 11:10~18:00 May 24th, but exact date/time TBC) with students giving presentations showcasing their research.

This projects aims to use SFC trans-disciplinary knowledges to create a web of connected institutions with SFC as the Japan hub
Increased global interest in Japanese language and cultures has led to government support for cultural outreach programs with a focus on support for policy initiatives in the Asia-Africa corridor
The development of direct student-to-student connectivity and innovative materials has lagged. This project will utilize SFC resources to:
Develop student-centered connections with institutions supporting Japanese studies
(ISP-gombe DRC, St. Stephens College, India etc.)
Create web-based Japanese studies materials
and p-to-p diplomacy portals
This academic project aims to conduct researches regarding mobility. Main research topics: advanced mobility and society such as smart mobility, smart city, smart tourism, sports data analytics. Next generation mobility such as autonomous driving and unmanned vehicles. Mobility data analysis in physical and cyber spaces by using spatial informatics and data sciences.

We have to manage ecosystem services and natural capital for sustainable development of human beings, which has become an international consensus since the end of 20 century and was popularized by the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) in the early 2000s. Natural capital is the world's stock of natural resources. Natural capital assets provide people with a broad range of free goods and services, called ecosystem services, which underpin our economy and society and some of which even make human life possible. Green infrastructure has been widely paid attention as a key concept for wise use and management of ecosystem services. Green infrastructure occurs at all scales. It is most often associated with storm water management systems, which are smart and cost-effective. However, green infrastructure is a bigger concept and is closely associated with many other things.
Along with sensors and actuators, computers are becoming embedded in the environment. As a result, artificial objects are becoming identical to natural objects, and computers start to control the real world. In recent years, rapid progress in computer science has been driven by theory and data. We are exploring (1) new theories based on neuroscience and natural computation, and (2) ultra-large-scale data processing techniques to make these advances.

Nature Positive is a term that has been gaining attention in preparation for the 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15) to the Convention on Biological Diversity to be held in Montreal, Canada, in December 2022, and is the concept of shifting the natural environment to a positive state, rather than trying to prevent the loss of nature. At COP10, held in Nagoya in 2010, the goal was set to reduce the rate of biodiversity loss significantly by 2020, but this goal was not achieved. The idea is to shift from a negative to a positive situation amid the critical situation of biodiversity on the planet. In addition, since climate change countermeasures and biodiversity conservation are two sides of the same global environmental issue, it is necessary to achieve both carbon neutrality and nature positivity. This academic project will discuss the realization of this nature positivity.

For those of us who live in Japan, South and North Korea are our “Neighbors” . Information about our neighbours including those which are not academic or clear if reliable , a surplus of information is released everyday. In order to truly research Korean Studies, each one of us has to be the judge of the information we come accross. We must obtain information that is reliable and of high quality.
Our goal as the SFC Korean Language Research Laboratory, is to learn the Korean language as a research tool. Using a high knowledge of the Korean Language as abase to research societal and humanaties catered to a regional study.
Furthermore this AP we will study South and North Korea comprihensvely through the different view points of government, diplomacy ,economy, management, society, culture, language and history.
Although we will use different types of sources of information such as written materials and interviews, field work is prioritized. In the future this information will be used to further the research with other research facilities and universities.

In this increasingly diverse world, there is a clear need for advanced communicative competence. In this project, we will explore the mechanism of second language acquisition and foreign language teaching through a mixed-methods, qualitative and quantitative approach with the aim of utilized-focused
language learning and research. In particular, we will focus on language learning in relation to various cultural perspectives, including cognitive linguistics and pragmatics as they pertain to living in and creating a multilingual and multicultural society.
