Technology Development of Sake Fermentation in Japan

Brewing of sake is one of Japanese traditional technologies developed in a long experience of peoples spending a long time over several thousands of years in their history. Their continuous efforts for technology development has now resulted in a large scale industry producing various kinds of sake in a big scale with the most modern technologies including facilities of full automation and oper...

Text Mining for Technology Monitoring

A considerable part of scientific and technological knowledge is coded in writing. In this context, automated text categorization can be regarded as a promising tool particularly for patent data analysis. In a real-life example, we show that automated text categorization can closely resemble the time -consuming categorisation job of an expert. By comparing different algorithms we reveal systema...

Automatic Discovery of Technology Networks for Industrial-Scale R&D IT Projects via Data Mining

Industrial-Scale R&D IT Projects depend on many sub-technologies which need to be understood and have their risks analysed before the project can begin for their success. When planning such an industrial-scale project, the list of technologies and the associations of these technologies with each other is often complex and form a network. Discovery of this network of technologies is time consumi...

Airborne Laser Measurement Technology in Japan

Kinematics GPS and inertia movement instrumentation technology has developed rapidly, which achieved to provide a high and stable accuracy of spatial positioning, attitude in three dimensions for high-speed movement platform such as aircraft. The airborne laser measurement system which is based on the laser scanning technology, has been integrated to the GPS inertia movement instrument on the a...
