Necessary tasks and intermediate milestones will be discussed, and responsibilities will be set for the US and Japanese teams.

Knowledge Hub (KHub): The project website is a key element to ensure the accessibility and findability of the datasets, data challenges, and our AI knowledge repository including hands-on projects and lecture materials derived from the data challenges and AI insights collected through an annual review of submitted AI solutions to data challenges. At the meeting, the status of the website, associated tools, and materials of the knowledge repository.
