Title: Invention and Evolution of QRcode

Abstract
Today, QRcode is used by people all over the world in all kinds of places, and has grown to become part of the infrastructure of society. Looking back on the days when ORcode was developed, I will talk about the background to the development of QRcode, activities to promote their use, and intellectual property strategies. I will also introduce some little-known features and developments of QRcode. Finally, I will introduce some recent examples of how QRcodesare being used.

Bio:
Since joining Denso, I have been engaged in product development for new businesses. I first developed the world's first handheld barcode reader using a CCD sensor, followed by an optical character recognition device. Based on my 12 years of experience in developing optical information reading devices, I developed the QRcode in 1994. Since then, I have been working on developing new QRcode and applications in response to changes in social trends. Currently Chief Engineer at Denso Wave Incorporated.

Work Experience
1980: Graduated from Hosei University, Department of Engineering
1980: Joined Denso Corporation
2012: Transferred to Denso Wave Incorporated.
2023: Honorary Doctorate from Hosei University.
2023: Concurrently serves as visiting professor at Fukui University.
2024: Concurrently serves as Project Professor at Nagoya Gakuin University.

Title: Digital Nudging in Education: Harnessing Technology to Empower Learners

Abstract
This presentation explores the role of digital nudging in education. Digital nudging, a concept rooted in behavioral economics, can be understood as informational cues and signals that positively influence online learning behaviors and ultimately empower learners. Informed by ongoing research initiatives, this presentation explores how digital nudges can be embedded in digital learning environments to guide learners. The talk also discusses perceptions, acceptability, ethical considerations, and future directions of digital nudges for research and practice, focusing on how digital nudging can be responsibly designed to foster personalized and meaningful learning experiences.

Title: Reconstruction of Multidimensional Data on Intelligent Technology and Artificial Intelligence

Abstract
Artificial Intelligence is applied for prediction and calculations of unknown values of data or coordinates. Decision makers, academicians, researchers, advanced-level students, technology developers, and government officials will find this text useful in furthering their research exposure to pertinent topics in AI, computer science, numerical analysis or operations research and assisting in furthering their own research efforts in these fields. Proposed method, called Two-Points Smooth Interpolation (TPSI), is the method of 2D curve interpolation and extrapolation using the set of key points (knots or nodes). Nodes can be treated as characteristic points of data for modeling and analyzing. The model of data can be built by choice of probability distribution function and nodes combination. TPSI modeling via nodes combination and parameter r as probability distribution function enables value anticipation in AI, risk analysis and decision making. Two-dimensional curve is extrapolated and interpolated via nodes combination and different functions as continuous probability distribution functions: polynomial, sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, logarithm, exponent, arc sin, arc cos, arc tan, arc cot or power function.

Bio:
Dariusz Jacek Jakobczak was born in Koszalin, Poland, on December 30, 1965. He graduated in mathematics (numerical methods and programming) from the University of Gdansk, Poland in 1990. He received the Ph.D. degree in 2007 in computer science from the Polish-Japanese Institute of Information Technology, Warsaw, Poland. From 1991 to 1994 he was a civilian programmer in the High Military School in Koszalin. He was a teacher of mathematics and computer science in the Private Economic School in Koszalin from 1995 to 1999. Since March 1998 he has worked in the Department of Electronics and Computer Science, Koszalin University of Technology, Poland and since October 2007 he has been an Assistant Professor in the Chair of Computer Science and Management in this department. His research interests connect mathematics with computer science and include computer vision, artificial intelligence, shape representation, curve interpolation, contour reconstruction and geometric modeling, numerical methods, probabilistic methods, game theory, operational research and discrete mathematics.
