/Course outline
Google Adsense dramatically changed advertisement on the web. We can put ad spots on our blog, website, YouTube movie, mobile apps to earn advertisement rate, and they invades territories of TVs, radios, newspapers, and magazines. In this course, we create blogs and Websites with Adsense and publish our knowledge. Lectures provide methods for managing Websites, knowledge of web advertisement, skills for starting home business. Basically blogs are created with Blogger, but participants who have advanced skills for web programming may develop websites with PHP or Python on Google App Engine. Building teams is also welcomed. A special lecture will be given by an EC site manager or a news site editor, yet it is now under preparation.
The final goal of the course is to earn advertisement rate from Google Adsense. However, it is too tough to earn minimum payment of 8000 yen in a half year. Participants will be credited if they obtain enough skills and knowledge to achieve the goal in the future.
授業の目的と到達目標
/Objectives and attainment
goals
G1. To learn basic skills for web marketing
Management of blog and website with ad spots requires quite complicated techniques of marketing. We have to find a field in which (1) fewer competitors (other bloggers, publishers, media etc.) exist, (2) more audience is willing to read, and (3) more advertisers offers higher advertisement rate. In this course, participants will research competitors, the number of searches, and business models of advertisers.

G2. To develop venture spirit which motivates to take reasonable risk along with return.
Owners of blogs or websites must be responsible for decisions they made. This point is definitely different from salary workers. For example, you may earn no money if you select unpopular field of your blog. Legal issues must be avoided. If the income exceeds 200,000 yen in a year, you have to send a tax report. You must do them by all your own decision. These experiences will build your confidence to challenge larger business. This course is open ended; participants will make decision on your business with advices from the lecturer.

G3. To be able to publish your idea and knowledge on the web.
Publishing skill on the web is useful in various situations: for example, creating a website for your club, working at public relation section, and building web interface at a systems development corporation. You may receive job offer or get new friend who contacts your blog. This course provides strategies for building and maintaining websites, writing fascinating blog, and appealing yourself on the web.

授業の概要
/Course outline
Colorectal cancer has the first incidence rate and the second mortality rate among Japanese. In the aging society, these values will continue increase. 80-90% of colorectal cancer develops from colorectal polyps. Therefore, it is reported that the incidence rate of colorectal cancer is reduced half if colorectal polyps can be early detected and removed.
Colonoscopy examinations are the golden standard for the detection of colorectal cancer and polyps. However, previous researches found 25% colorectal polyps are missed in colonoscopy examinations. In addition, colonoscopy examinations bring about heavy mental and physical burdens on physicians. To date, computer-aided diagnosis systems have been developed to reduce the burden of colonoscopy physicians. However, these systems were not put to practical use.
授業の目的と到達目標
/Objectives and attainment
goals
In this project, we will use large quantities of colorectal polyp images to train deep neural networks for realtime detection of colorectal polyps. Furthermore, this system will also recognize malignant Sessile Serrated Polyp/adenoma (SSAP). We will realize this computer-aided diagnosis system through tight collaboration between doctors and engineers.
授業スケジュール
/Class schedule
(1) Oct. 2018 (3 slots)
With the aim of building technology venture, we will collect documents and visit Division of Proctology to confirm the needs of the computer-aided diagnosis system for colorectal polyps.
(2) Nov. 2018  (3 slots)
Investigate the problems of previous products and the requirement of the new system including functions and service. Perform the function design of the new product.
(3) Dec. 2018-Mar. 2019 (8 slots)
Construct a platform for the development of this system. Realize a prototype of this system based on colorectal detection and recognition algorithms.
Investigate the rules and format of patents, specification documents, and instructions for use. Prepare the draft of the above documents.
(4) To be determined later
Participate exhibitions to appeal the system and collect comments from visitors.
