SCIEN Joins JDLA as a Full Member

株式会社SCIEN, located in Bunkyo, Tokyo, has officially become a full member of the Japan Deep Learning Association (JDLA). This significant collaboration aims to enhance SCiEN's mission to rapidly translate AI research knowledge into practical implementations across various industries, including manufacturing, mobility, healthcare, and media.

The Importance of AI Implementation

The integration of AI and deep learning is no longer just a trend for cutting-edge companies; it has become an essential business consideration across numerous sectors. However, many organizations face challenges as AI integrations often stop at proof-of-concept (PoC) levels, leaving ambiguity around validation and operational deployment. Compounding this issue is the tendency for tacit knowledge to remain unrecorded, leading to reliance on individual expertise rather than systematic approaches.

SCIEN addresses these challenges by observing and articulating phenomena occurring in the workplace, thereby creating documented specifications suitable for AI and software implementations. The goal is to handle assumptions regarding operations, data, decision-making, personnel, and investment in a scientifically sound manner, enabling businesses to discuss ROI effectively as a result of their AI implementations.

SCiEN's Commitment as a JDLA Member

The new membership with JDLA aligns with SCiEN’s mission to create a cycle of knowledge between research, industry, and community. SCiEN is committed to
1. Scientificizing Tacit Knowledge: Structuring expert insights, images, blueprints, and logs from the workforce into reusable knowledge to convert tacit expertise into valuable assets for AI and operational improvement.

2. Going Beyond PoC: Designing and implementing AI systems that remain effective in real-world applications, encompassing evaluation design, Human-in-the-Loop processes, on-premise operations, security, and ROI visibility.

3. AI Talent Development: Expanding opportunities for young professionals and students to engage in real-world problem-solving, thereby creating a knowledge circulatory structure involving academia, industry, and community.

Vision of SCiEN

Sora Tabata, the CEO of SCiEN, expressed his pride in joining JDLA, stating, “Our vision at SCiEN is to add color and connections to people’s lives.” He emphasized that AI is not merely a tool for efficiency but a means to swiftly enhance decision-making and provide opportunities for new challenges in regions and among youths. This technological capability is crucial for delivering valuable societal interactions and vibrant lives.

Future Directions

As a member of JDLA, SCiEN plans to accumulate and disseminate knowledge related to the societal implementation of deep learning and AI. The company will support organizations in designing evaluations, organizing data, and nurturing talent to ensure AI investments yield tangible results. Specialized sectors like manufacturing quality control, cutting-edge mobility R&D, interactive AI in healthcare, and internal knowledge utilization will particularly benefit from SCiEN’s scientific approach to knowledge in practice.

About SCiEN
