Technology for comparing the work of skilled workers and beginners

Automatically identifies skilled workers and beginners.


  • Extracts elemental tasks from work data measured using acceleration sensors, etc.
  • Determines whether data input using neural networks with attention mechanisms are from skilled workers or beginners. Also extracts elemental tasks with high dependency on skills at the time.
  • Joint research with Osaka University

Applications



  • Analyze tasks in the front lines of production.

Benchmarks, strengths, and track record



  • By using neural networks equipped with attention mechanisms, this technology can extract elemental tasks with high dependency on worker skills.
  • Attained outstanding results through verification using data from actual manufacturing workplaces.
