PROBLEM
• Web services are overwhelmed by the rapidly growing amount of user-generated visual contents
• There is no easy way for them to organise those visual data in their database other than worker-intensive text-tagging solution
SOLUTION
• WebAPI that automatically connects and sorts out visual contents in the database based on their visual similarity
• Cost efficient engine that charges the users based on the actual usage or the performance
CATEGORIFIC CASE I!!
To increase in-app stamp purchase for photo sharing app
Categorific+Case+I
• Too many screen transitions to find good fitting stamps for each pictures
• With Categorific, an app can recommend the most popular stamps based on the historical data that have the similar contents to a newly taken picture
Categorific+Case+I
(1) Open up DecoPic appCategorific+Case+I
(2) Select a photo from albumCategorific+Case+I
(3) Selecting "Stamp"Categorific+Case+I
(4) Selecting "+"Categorific+Case+I
(5) Look for a stamp for babyCategorific+Case+I
(6) Finally finds a baby stamp!Categorific+Case+I
(1) Open up DecPic appCategorific+Case+I
(2) Select a photo from albumCategorific+Case+I
(3) Baby stamp shows up!
Displaying!popular stamps!for baby pictures!
based on the!historical data
Categorific+Case+I
CATEGORIFIC CASE II!!
To add “search by image” option for e-commerce service
Categorific+Case+II
• Only text search is available to look for an item from the long list of web-shops and items
• With Categorific, “search by image” and “look for similar-looking items” functions can be easily added
Categorific+Case+II
• With “search by image,” users can find many similar-taste items with ease
• Users do not have to think about which text- wording would best describe a blue shirt
Categorific+Case+II
CATEGORIFIC CASE III!!
To sort out visual items based on content similarity for better user-
experience
Categorific+Case+III
• Stamps are simply listed, and it is too difficult for users to find what they are looking for
• With Categorific, an app can sort out stamps based on contents similarity for better user-experience

APPENDIX I!!
Our real time motion capture technology for webcam recorded live
video!!
“Online Conference System 2006-148425 (P2006-148425A)“
Appendix+I
APPENDIX II!!
Developing Computer-Vision supported heavy-machinery video camera in order to enhance safety at construction sites as a
joint project with Kyoritsu Denshi Kogyo, the biggest crane-camera market share holder
Appendix+II
APPENDIX III!!
AI (both Computer-Vision and Machine-Learning) supported visual contents
moderation engine with our patent-pending “SmartAllocation" algorithm maximising human-computation efficiency to cut the
existing moderation cost by 90% at the most
Appendix+III
Filtering away inappropriate visual contents
• We reduced 90% of the existing human-only moderation cost for one of the world's biggest game companies without giving up moderation accuracy
• We did not directly apply computer-vision based moderation results, but used them to only maximise human computation efficiency instead.
