ITMO Scientists Develop New Cheap and Quick Way to Produce Green Hydrogen
… margarine and soap. Moreover, hydrogen is an efficient green energy source. Industrially, it’s produced by heating methane and water vapor to 700-1,000 °C. However, this chemical reaction produces both hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Water electrolysis is a more eco-conscious way to generate hydrogen; in this process, water disintegrates into hydrogen and oxygen – b…

ITMO PhD Students Train Algorithms To Count Cells in Microalgae Images With Computer Vision
… counting chamber, and others, and then run the code again. This is impossible to do with neural network-based tools. If just one feature of the images changes, an AI tool will malfunction – you’ll need to retrain it on new data. Our tool is adaptive and can work with images from any equipment and with any parameters,” explains Yulia Borisova, an author of the study …

ITMO Graduate Alan Gazzaev: From Student Startup to AI Project for MTS
…ached such a high score thanks to two-stage supervised training (SFT): in the first stage, it was trained on code and mathematical problems, and in the second – on high-quality instructions. The hardest part of the work was to properly train a small model. In November 2024, MWS AI successfully tested Cotype Nano on their set of problems and made it available for b…

ITMO Master’s Students Develop Russia’s First Monitoring and Cyberprotection System for AI
… text, and scripts, and communicating with clients. However, the more widespread such solutions become, the more vulnerable they are to cyberattacks, with jailbreaking and prompt injections being the most common. Using these methods, criminals can hijack a model and gain access to confidential data or generate content that is typically off-limits. For instance, in 20…
