Joshibi University of Art and Design (女子美術大学, Joshibijutsu Daigaku) (abbreviated "女子美 (Joshibi)") is a private women's art school in Suginami and Sagamihara in Japan.The mission and aims of Joshibi, developing creative minds, encourages students to contribute to local, national and international societies, female independence and evaluation of social status for female through fine art and design, as well as train and educate qualified art tutors and creative artists.Joshibi is the first fine art institution for female students in Japan and is the oldest private art school.
AI, IoT, and machine learning are changing how things are made nowadays. Because of this, autonomous manufacturing and robotics are becoming more important. As companies move into Industry 4.0, these robots can help make factories more flexible, products better, and work more smoothly. Autonomous manufacturing uses AI to do jobs without people, so production can keep going without mistakes. This paper looks at how to add autonomous robots to factories. These robots can make decisions in real-time, change how they work, and do more jobs automatically, which makes production better. We'll also check out robots that can work with people (cobots) and how robots are used for things like packing, moving stuff, putting things together, and checking quality. Also, we'll explore why sensors, machine vision, and fixing problems before they happen are important. These things help robots work on their own, without much help from people. Even though autonomous manufacturing has a lot of good things, like less stopping, safer work, and cheaper costs, there are bad sides too. It can cost a lot to start, can be hard to add to old systems, can have computer security problems, and needs well-trained workers. The paper also takes a peek at what's coming next, like robots that work together in groups and AI that can make things better on its own.
This paper aims to analyse the historical circumstances surrounding the birth and activity of Shakai-und & ocirc;shi [Social Movement History], the journal of the Society for the Study of Social Movement History, which was published in Japan in ten issues between 1972 and 1985, as well as its social background and historiographic influence. Borrowing its name from the French research journal Le Mouvement social, Shakai-und & ocirc;shi was led by young researchers in the Department of Western History at the University of Tokyo who experienced the student movement of the 1960s. Its members were primarily scholars of modern French history, and many of their research articles reflected the experiences of student movements, such as revolutionary syndicalism. Furthermore, the journal discussed the new historical theories of & Eacute;cole des Annales in France, which subsequently led to the creation of a new trend collectively known in Japan as Social History research. This article focuses on the testimonies of the researchers involved, with commentary and additional information added for French readers.
Natural views have a healing effect on humans. In recent years, many studies have proven the healing effect of natural views, even with different media such as images and videos. However, current media-based natural space creation mainly involves video projection of nature shotted directly. We assume that videos processed to assimilate with the room would have a greater healing effect. We compared two video projection types and evaluated the mental healing effect. To give a comparison, we prepared two videos: a non-processed video shot directly of a natural view and a processed video being a processed video of a natural view assimilated to the wall based on our proposal. For the proposal video, we adjusted the brightness and saturation of pixels to blur the projection’s border, making it appear to assimilate with the wall. A comparative analysis of the two types of videos will clarify the differences in their healing effects. We conducted a questionnaire and the semi-interview as the sentimental evaluation. We applied the biological signal related to the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system as quantitative evaluation. Furthermore, we conducted a statistical analysis on both evaluations. The results showed that both videos had a healing effect. And the impression of the processed video was significantly different between those who felt calmed after viewing the non-processed video and those who felt calmed after viewing the processed video.
This research aimed to examine the applicability of the colour feelings prediction formulas developed by Nayatani et al. to the estimation of colour combination feelings of “kimono” by deeming “kimono” as a two-colour combination of nagagi and obi . Using illustrations of a woman wearing a “kimono”, we conducted an evaluation experiment of colour combination feelings on “contrast”, “floridness”, “warmth”, “pleasantness”, “refinement”, “beauty”, and “lucidity” and analysed the correlation between the estimation values obtained by the colour feelings prediction formulas and the evaluation values. As a result, the following conclusions were reached.
