We investigate the $SFR-M_{\star}$ relation of the infrared luminous galaxies selected in either $11{\mu}m$ and $15{\mu}m$ from the $5.6deg^2$ of the AKARI NEP-Wide field. From the constructed multi-wavelength catalog spanning $0.3{\mu}m$ to $24{\mu}m$, we select 3,408 S11 > $50{\mu}Jy$ galaxies and 1,896 L15 > $20{\mu}Jy$ galaxies which corresponds to $L_{IR}{\sim}10^{11}L_{\odot}$ at z ~ 0.5 and 0.7 respectively. Photometric redshifts of the selected galaxies were derived using LePHARE and Coleman Extended templates. ~98% S11 selected galaxies are galaxies with (median redshift) ~ 0.4, and ~96% L15 selected galaxies are galaxies with ~ 0.6. Star formation rates and stellar mass of these galaxies were calculated using MAGPHYS which derives physical parameters with SED fitting. In the SFR-$M_{\star}$ diagram, $11{\mu}m/15{\mu}m$ selected galaxies are located in the main sequence of star-forming galaxies at z ~ 1.
