I don't think so. I think none of organization in your list will meet
your needs.

>(excluding university and university-affiliated laboratories)

This will make your selection very narrow, since most of academic computer
research in Japan have been organized by the Ministry of Education.

Yes, etl.go.jp has been very aggressive.
I think kek.ac.jp (The High-Energy Physics Lab., in Tsukuba, an organization
of the Ministry of Education) is eligible too.
