MISSION
Humanity began bartering in ancient times and continues to "exchange value" in various forms. In recent years, the rapid development of technologies such as AI and blockchain has created new forms of value exchange and trust.
As part of our mission at RIISE, we conduct extensive research into "value exchange" technologies, unconstrained by existing academic frameworks, to realize a society where people worldwide can engage in fair and smooth value exchange. RIISE will engage in research projects based on the following three visions:
Value Analysis
Technology to quantify the value of goods and services based on scarcity and context
Value Creation
Research on technologies that create and enhance the value of human-created goods and services
Value Exchange
Research on platform technologies that support value exchange
PROJECTS
Interactive Simulation for Decision Making in Multi-Objective Systems
Interactive simulations are computational tools that allow people to design and optimize solutions to all manner of socio-technical engineering problems. The goal is to make the techniques of model-based thinking and multi-objective decision making inclusive to people of all backgrounds. Therefore, building novel user interfaces to include non-expert stakeholders in any given socio-technical engineering challenge is a major component of this research.

Fair and smooth value exchange based on optimization technology
When value is exchanged between people, it is essential to aim for both fairness in the value exchange as well as increase in social surplus. In addition, when calculating what type of exchange is the most desirable for such an outcome, it is necessary to develop algorithms that run in practical time. The aim in this research is to realize fair and smooth value exchange by solving the above issues using optimization technology.

Memory Marketplace
The traditional consumer-to-consumer (C2C) marketplace focuses on trading goods and services for monetary compensation. However, used items, such as old instruments or collectibles, often represent more than their monetary value to their owners. The items are associated with the memories created from owning, using, maintaining and caring for them. The aim of this research is to investigate how this emotional value is exchanged in C2C marketplace, and how to support the co-creation of emotional value associated with an item in the global marketplace by enhancing emotional and multilingual transactions between buyers and sellers with novel technological solutions.
