Report on Completion of Internship at Institute of Environmental Informatics of IDEA Consultants, Inc. (ITO, Course of Marine Resources and Environment)

I conducted a nine-day internship from August 13 to 21 at Institute of Environmental Informatics of IDEA Consultants, Inc.

During the internship, based on discussions with the person in charge on the first day of the internship, which welcomed with nervousness, I set the task of 'removing image distortion caused by waves using AI' based on my research theme. During the period, while learning about various knowledges, information and research on AI, I participated in online meetings with clients and experienced discussions among engineers on 'how AI-based technology can actually be used to solve social problems'. On the final day, I also presented the results of their assignments. The content was in line with the research themes of the participating students and the experience of participating in the actual conference was unique to the internship.

Through this internship, I was able to deepen my understanding and perspective of AI. I would like to utilise the valuable experience of this internship in my future research life.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Institute of Environmental Informatics of IDEA Consultants, Inc for accepting my internship so willingly.
