XAI for Sustainability

As the front line of offense and also last line of defense in your task,
in god we trust all others we track..

Account Planning

In 2001, I had established SONAR which is known as the first truly independent strategic planning consultancy in Japan.
With its unique customer centric approach, SONAR has been the frontline for strategic and innovative brand evolution, working with many of the worlds largest companies, both here and abroad.
Our strict methodologies provide revealing consumer insights that we use strategically to generate transformational ideas that meet our client's business objectives.

Engagement Planning

Today it is vital for sustainabilities to create strong content that provokes dynamic discussion, encourages sharing and educates across all media environments, particularly digital and social.
Here at SONAR we had dedicated to providing the best in class content strategies and executing them seamlessly into the world of your stakeholders.

Decision Intelligence

In 2014, SONAR obtained an e-Rad ID (The Cross-ministerial Research and Development Management System ID). After collaborating with the National Institute of Informatics (NII) as a research partner, I earned a Ph.D. in Informatics from NII in 2022, specializing in Explainable AI (XAI).

My work focuses on leveraging cutting-edge generative AI to analyze big data that reflects dynamic real-world behaviors. The goal is to unlock meaningful decision intelligence from complex, often opaque data systems and drive better states.
