WHAT WE DO

In Jij, the three teams of business development, algorithm development, and software development are working together to create a very challenging and exciting market, realizing cutting-edge research results and leading to industrial applications.

WHY WE DO

The recent technological development of the Internet and AI has made it possible to predict human behavior patterns, and new services are being created to meet the mobility needs and energy supply and demand changes that are expected to arise from this. On the other hand, it is not easy for conventional methods to make calculations to make the best decisions among the huge amount of forecast data and constraints in terms of both quality and quantity. In fact, in many cases, it is mostly supplemented by craftsmanship and experience. We aim to solve such computationally hard challenges by using physics inspired algorithms.
