コンペティション開催の背景

クライアントのDX化を推進するため、データ分析をはじめとしたソリューションビジネスを提供しているテクノプロ・デザイン社では、世界からも高い評価を得る日本のものづくりを技術と人のチカラで支援し、持続可能な社会の実現に貢献する企業として、今後ますます増大していくことが予想されるビッグデータ活用ニーズにお応えするため、データサイエンティスト不足の解決に向けた取組みを強化しています。

一昨年2022年6月、その一環としてデータサイエンスプラットフォーム「SIGNATE®」にて『テクノプロ・デザイン社 飛行機の航空経路の推定チャレンジ~CARATS航空経路データを用いたウェイポイントの推定~』と題したコンペティションを開催。また、その翌年2023年8月には同プラットフォームにて『テクノプロ・デザイン社 食品パッケージ画像解析チャレンジ』を開催し、両コンペティション共に数多くの方からご応募をいただきました。

テクノプロ・デザイン社では、さらに多くの方々にデータサイエンスの魅力や可能性を感じていただく機会を提供することを目指し、今年も同プラットフォームにてコンペティションを開催することを決定しました。

コンペティション技術の活用

今回のコンペティションにおける画像・動画解析技術は、製造業のさまざまな分野での活用が見込まれています。例えば、動画解析技術においては製造業における動作標準化による品質、安全性、生産性向上が見込まれます。動作解析で重要なことは類似で、かつ微妙に動作が違うことを正確に見極められることです。

画像解析技術においては、品質管理の場面では製造ラインでの製品の外観検査や欠陥の検出に使用され、製品の表面に傷や不良がある場合に、自動的にその箇所を検出して不良品を排除することが可能になります。

その他にも、生産ラインでの製造プロセスを見える化し、効率的な改善策を導き出すことになども画像解析を用いたデータ収集・分析が活用されています。 本コンペティションは、西川扇重郎先生全面協力、株式会社生活と舞踊様運営の『俺の日本舞踊』のサポートにて実施をしております。

テクノプロ・デザイン社が掲げる【『技術』と『人』のチカラでお客さまと価値を共創し、持続可能な社会の実現に貢献する】というパーパスの下、日本の高度技術の粋を結集した日本舞踊を分析対象として選定。歴史ある伝統文化を分析対象とすることで、ソリューションを提供している製造業におけるデータ分析を疑似体験していただくだけでなく、日本の伝統文化の持続性についても考えていただきます。
