Mizuho to help deploy AI to study Hachijo’s humpback whales

The project will run from May to October 2024.

Mizuho Financial Group has teamed up with Fujitsu and Hachijo Town to deploy AI-based image recognition technology to study humpback whale migration and conservation in Hachijo Island.

The entities plan to use the data to promote ethical tourism and better grasp trends in humpback whale migration in the island.

Mizuho–the only major financial institution operating in the island– will make use of its finance and digital technology to promote a variety of initiatives. These include digitalisation of government processes and tourism promotion.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
