Tsunenori Mine received his B.E. degree in Computer Science and Computer Engineering in 1987 and M.E. and D.E. degrees in Information Systems in 1989 and 1993, respectively, all from Kyushu University. He is an Associate Professor at the Department of Advanced Information Technology, Faculty of Information Science and Electrical Engineering, Kyushu University. He received a best paper award for his study on a parallel parsing algorithm from Journal of IPSJ in 1993, and an award for his contribution to IPSJ in 2015. He is interested in developing real-world services using artificial intelligence techniques, in particular, natural language processing, text mining, data mining, recommendation, and multi-agent systems. His research projects include "Data (text) mining for driving Government 2.0", "Ito-Campus-Life: Local-Area-Guide for sharing and recommending information to satisfy basic daily needs", "Real SNS for reusing social connection records", "Comment Mining for improving student learning performance", and "Intelligent transport guide systems for helping passengers on public transportation systems". Akira Fukuda received his BEng, MEng, and PhD degrees in Computer Science and Communication Engineering from Kyushu University, Japan, in 1977, 1979, and 1985, respectively. From 1977 to 1981, he worked for the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation, where he pursued research on computer-system performance evaluation and the queueing theory.
From 1981 to 1991 and from 1991 to 1993, he worked for the Department of Information Systems and the Department of Computer Science and Communication Engineering, Kyushu University, Japan, respectively. In 1994, he joined Nara Institute of Science and Technology, Japan, as a Professor. Since 2001, 2008, and 2016, he has been a Professor at the Graduate School of Information Science and Electrical Engineering, and Director of the System LSI Research Center, and director of R&D Center for Smart Mobility, Kyushu Univ., Japan,
