Applied Topology and Industry-Academia Collaboration Lab
Machine-translated · View original
An industry-academia hub that takes on uncertainty in manufacturing with the power of mathematics.
AboutAbout the lab
Tackling manufacturing challenges across all academic fields
The Next-Generation Manufacturing Innovation Promotion Hub is a joint research promotion hub established by Kyushu University and Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd. in October 2025.
The hub aims to resolve the uncertainty caused by reliance on manual labor in manufacturing engineering chains and supply chains.
Using mathematical and information technologies such as big data, AI, and optimization, it carries out interdisciplinary research across all academic fields.
Associate Professor Tetsuhiro Moriyama specializes in topology, applied topology, and industry-academia collaboration.
Key terms
- Topology
- A field of mathematics that studies shapes through the properties that do not change when they are stretched or bent.
- Supply chain
- The connected series of steps in manufacturing, from the procurement of raw materials to the delivery of the product.
- Small-Start, Step-Up Model
- A framework involving three parties that efficiently moves through the flow of seed discovery, matching, and joint research.

The Next-Generation Manufacturing Innovation Promotion Hub aims to fundamentally resolve the uncertainty caused by reliance on manual labor in manufacturing engineering chains and supply chains. To this end, it uses mathematical and information technologies to carry out interdisciplinary research across all academic fields.
*Illustrative imageBuilding a framework for industry-academia collaboration
Together with Kyushu University OIP Co., Ltd., the three parties have jointly devised and introduced an original "Small-Start, Step-Up Model." It moves efficiently through the flow of "seed discovery → matching → joint research" and speeds up research through collaboration with diverse academic fields.
*Illustrative imageTopology and its applications
Associate Professor Tetsuhiro Moriyama studies topology, including configuration spaces of points and finite-type topological invariants. The lab also works on applying topology to fields such as image analysis and multidimensional data analysis.
