Human-interactive annealing for multilateral observation Yoshiharu Maeno, Kenichi Horie, Kiichi Ito, and Yukio Ohsawa 9/12/2021 1

New chance discovery Objective: discovery of relevant events neither visible nor observed as data Application example • Discovery of an emerging technology in R&D • Discovery of a leader hidden in an organization • Discovery of unconscious preference for 9/12/2021 2 marketing

• Be aware of weak relationships in observation beyond human's intuition • Imagine their unobserved origin. Something shall be discovered there. • Human’s Interactive interpretation annealing • Crystallization algorithm Invisible relevant events Hypothetical scenarios 9/12/2021 3

Three advantages of the interactive annealing 9/12/2021 1. Fusion of human’s work and data processing • Heritage from chance discovery • Extension to multilateral observation 2. Human’s interpretation • Adaptive nature to the individual human’s degree of understanding 3. Crystallization algorithm • Stable and deterministic nature 4
