What is AI Collaboration Project?
The AI collaboration project aims to solve various issues of members with AI and share know-how indevelopment among the participating members.
Four teams were formed, each consisting of a Data Provider and Application Developer, tackling each "UseCase." A Data Provider is an IERE member who has a problem to solve and literally provides a large
amount of data related to the problem, and an Application Developer is a member who develops an AI
program to solve the problem.

CLP and E.ON. were co-leaders and the project started in April 2020. It continued until the participatingmember-exclusive online meeting to share the results was held in November 2021. This webinar will present
some of the results reported at that meeting.
