TOKYO, Feb 28, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - 日本電気株式会社(注1、以下NEC)と北原病院グループの医療法人社団KNI(注2、以下KNI)は、AI技術を活用して患者に最適なリハビリテーション(以下、リハビリ)介入プログラムを作成する技術実証を北原リハビリテーション病院において実施しました。本技術実証では、NEC独自のAI技術である「模倣学習技術」を用いて支援することで、経験の浅いスタッフが行うリハビリ介入プログラム作成業務の正確性が46%向上することを確認しました。 NECとKNIは、AI技術などICTを活用して医療の質の向上と業務の効率化を目指す「デジタルホスピタル」(注3)の実現に向け2017年より共創を開始(注4)しており、今回の取り組みはその一環で実施しています。 背景 超少子高齢化の進展に伴い医療の財源や人材不足がより深刻となる中、QOL(Quality of life)向上にも繋がる患者の早期在宅復帰や介護予防が求められています。特に、リハビリによる短い期間で最大限に患者の日常生活動作(ADL)能力の回復を促す取り組みが重要です。 北原リハビリテーション病院では、綿密なリハビリ計画を立て実行することにより在院日数の短縮(注5)に成功しています。一方でリハビリ介入は、スタッフ個人の経験に依存する作業が多く標準化が難しいため、経験の浅いスタッフが作成したリハビリ計画をベテランスタッフが見直すことで計画の質を担保しており、効率的にノウハウを伝承して経験の浅いスタッフでも質の高いリハビリ計画を作成できる仕組みの構築が望まれています。 今回の取り組みについて リハビリ計画作成業務は、「患者の回復度の予測」「リハビリ目標の設定」「リハビリ介入プログラム作成」の3つのプロセスがあり、今回「リハビリ介入プログラム作成」に着目し、AI技術を活用した業務負荷の軽減について検証を行いました(注6)。 具体的には北原リハビリテーション病院に蓄積されているリハビリ介入プログラムの実施事例データベースに、熟練者の経験に即した行動を学習して再現する「模倣学習技術」を適用して回復効果が高かったリハビリ介入プログラムの実施事例を模倣することで、患者一人ひとりの状態に最適と思われるリハビリ介入プログラムの候補を表示します。経験...

HONG KONG, Feb 25, 2022 - (亞太商訊) - 在香港聯合交易主板上市的檳傑科達國際有限公司（「PIL」或「集團」），今日公佈其截至2021年12月31日止年度財務業績。2021財年，公司收入創歷史新高，達5.081億令吉，淨利潤為1.167億令吉，分別較去年增長約21.4%及2.5%。 各經營分部業績表現，其中包含2021財年分部間收益 受自動化測試設備(ATE)及工廠自動化解決方案(FAS)業績增長帶動，本集團2021財年業績整體大幅回升。2021財年，ATE及FAS部門收入分別貢獻集團總收入的約70.1%及29.9%。2020財年，分別為67.6%和32.4%。 自動化測試設備(ATE)部門 ATE部門於2021財年貢獻本集團70.1%收入，繼續成為集團主要收入及利潤來源。2020財年經歷收入下滑後，該部門於2021財年憑藉雙位數增長實現「華麗轉身」，收入達3.584億令吉，同比增加22.6%。2021財年，隨著智能手機及周邊產品市場復蘇，電光行業繼續為ATE部門貢獻主要收入，收入貢獻率約49.7%，主要來自本集團廣泛多元的產品組合，包括鄰近感測器、3D磁力計測試處理器、環境光傳感器、晶圓級VCSEL（垂直腔表面發射激光器）測試解決方案及光學和光子傳感解決方案下的其他相關應用。 本集團不懈拓展汽車行業業務，該行業已成為ATE部門第二大收入來源，收入貢獻率達27.6%，並憑藉39.9%的增長速度，成為ATE部門下增速最快的領域。汽車行業的強大需求主要由於本集團提供的汽車測試解決方案涵蓋裝配及測試全方位服務，且覆蓋元件測試、最終測試到包裝等一系列製造流程。2021財年，ATE部門的增長同樣受益於半導體行業的發展。半導體行業業務收入貢獻率達20.0%，收入同比增長26.8%，主要由於受過去兩年疫情影響，數字化轉型加快，集成芯片及其他相關半導體產品需求增加，帶來對本集團測試處理設備的持續需求。 在可預見的未來，ATE部門將繼續成為本集團業績表現的主導因素。隨著全球新冠疫情推動科技以前所未有勢頭發展，以及技術融合帶來強大力量及動力，本集團將充分發揮ATE部門重大利好條件，迎來光明廣闊前景。 工廠自動化解決方案(FAS)部門 FAS部門於2020財...

TOKYO, Feb 25, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - NECは、過去事例データから事象の要因とその発生条件を導き出すことで具体的な改善条件を提示し、人が理解しやすい表現で施策立案支援を可能にするAI技術「ルール発見型推論技術」を開発しました。 製造業や小売業、金融業などの領域において、製品不良要因の事前特定や顧客の購買行動分析などに貢献します。 製品の品質管理や顧客分析など、データに基づく現状分析は様々な業界で行われています。近年、AIを活用した製品の品質状況の予測や顧客の購買行動予測が行われています。具体的には、将来予測とその予測結果をもたらす要因の提示をAIが行い、改善策や対策は、専門家の経験に基づいて立案されています。 しかし、人手不足の深刻化や熟練技術者や専門家の高齢化が進む中、技術や経験、ノウハウを伝承するとともに、AIを活用し、将来予測と共に施策立案まで含めたトータルな支援が求められています。 NECは、「人と協働し社会に浸透するAIの開発」を推進しており、このような課題解決に向け、本技術を開発しました。 技術の特長 本技術は、過去事例を正解データとして学習し、結果と結果につながる要因と発生条件を見出だし、「どの要因がどのような条件のとき、何が起きるか」をルールとして構築することで、各要因の改善条件を示すことができます。 例えば製造業における製品不良の要因分析では、原材料の成分配合や処理装置の設定など大量の要因が影響するため、構築されるルールが膨大になります。このため、これらのルールを網羅的に調査して、各要因の改善条件まで導き出すことは現実的ではありませんでした。 本技術は、各ルールの優先順位付けを独自の方法で行うことにより、より少なく、より高精度なルールを探っていきます。具体的には、実際に製品不良が発生したデータと発生しなかったデータを正解として学習させ、ルール群を構築します。そこから各ルールの優先順位づけを独自の方法で行い、さらに並列計算技術を応用することで、必要十分なルールを少ない計算量で選別できるように設計しました。 オープンデータを用いた実験では、事例全体をカバーするために既存手法で50個近いルールが必要だったものが、本技術では十数個のルールで達成できることを確認できました。これによ...
