Researchers Use Silicon Nanoparticles for Enhancing Solar Cells Efficiency
…the battery. Scientists from ITMO University, in collaboration with colleagues from St. Petersburg State University, Italy and the USA, proposed using silicon nanoparticles to solve these problems. “Dielectric particles don’t absorb light, so they don’t heat up. They are chemically inert and don’t affect the stability of the battery. Besides, being highly re…

Online Farmers Market and Students with Jobs: SumIT School Winning Projects
… to be successful is being committed to the constant development of their project and having a good awareness of what they can do and which problems their project is aiming to solve. How the latter is going to be implemented is not as important as understanding your product and its potential consumer and working with a real-life problem that you have a feel of and re…

MELScience Founder Gives Lecture on VR in Education
…red by MEL Science). Issues of working with VR The approach I mentioned implies having a virtual reality that actually works. Unfortunately, there are still issues to be solved in this regard. When I was still doing programming, we developed programs for the so-called palmtops. Those were handheld computers before smartphones, which appeared later. In 2005-2…

Phylogenetic Trees and Targeted Cancer Research: Bioinformatics Summer School
… included a seminar on the Monte-Carlo Markov Chain (МСМС) sampling method, and we decided to apply it to our project. I remembered hearing about cases when similar tasks were solved by using decision trees based on a set of machine learning algorithms, which also inspired our research approach. The largest chunk of time was spent away from the computer; we had to or…

… its designated functions, but also do that effectively and with the least time, memory, and energy costs possible. It turned out that however unsurmountable, this task can be solved with the help of a special type system that would describe resource consumption. Another cutting-edge research area we’re interested in is applying program synthesis to the field of l…
