State of Residence at the Time of Filing: California

Approval Notice Date: November 20^th, 2024

Case Summary:

With a Master of Engineering in Precision Engineering, undoubtedly, our client possesses the ability to advance in the field of Robotics. As soon as she contacted us to file an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on her behalf, we carefully evaluated her credentials and determined that we could guide her to a successful NIW outcome.

To prove that she is an essential researcher in her field, we highlighted her exceptional attributes in her petition packet as follows:

Her research contributions include 1 first-authored peer-reviewed journal article, 3 peer-reviewed conference papers (2 of them first-authored), and 3 patent applications (one of them first-authored), reflecting her peers’ recognition of the value of her work.
We also noted that her work has been cited 43 times by dependent and independent researchers, demonstrating its reliance within the field.
Given her expertise in machine learning, our client has frequently been invited to conduct peer reviews, having completed at least 5 to date. This highlights her deep knowledge of topics related to her proposed endeavor.
We also noted that her research related to developing cutting-edge machine learning algorithms and applying them to robotic systems to expand the real-world applications of these robotic technologies and create a more efficient and autonomous society has great substantial merit and national importance. Essentially, her work facilitates the growth of the United States manufacturing industry, driving advancements in automation and efficiency in the United States manufacturing industry.
Her study has received funding from the Japan Science and Technology Agency’s Impulse Paradigm Change through Disruptive Technologies Program and the Okawa Foundation for Information and Telecommunications.

The above funding supports projects that promote innovative research that changes industry and improves communication technologies. Therefore, our client’s advanced glass obstacle detection algorithms are relevant for fostering the widespread adoption of robotics for improved automation and efficiency.

2 experts in the field have submitted letters confirming that her record of successful research has well-positioned her to continue advancing the proposed endeavor, one of whom wrote:

“To summarize, it is evident that [Client’s] expertise in applying robust machine learning algorithms to improve the safety of robotic technology is in high demand for advancing the U.S. technological landscape to benefit both economic development and human well-being.”
