• Solitons for Optical Computing: ITMO’s Physicist Receives a Presidential Grant

  …data by methods of non-liner optics. Despite the fact that scientists managed to develop such nanoparticles only a short time ago, they have significant advantages, such as magnetic and electric resonance responses and spectral position that can be shifted by changing size or shape of nanoparticles. It allows to control properties of structures consisting of such par…

• Visualization and Computation: ITMO to Collaborate with University of Oslo

• The Master Provocateur

  … created entirely from dense patterns of scribbles made with a ballpoint pen (examples of which are included in the current Hermitage exhibition) as well as gory cartoonish vignettes painted using smears and splodges of his own blood, and of course the beetle paintings. His 2002 work "Heaven of Delight' covered the ceiling of the Royal Palace in Brussels with a mind-…

• CODA: The New Approach to Virus Protection

  …ent the model and then sends it back. Antivirus. Credit: anti-malware.ru We’ve proved our systems efficiency in May, 2016, when we launched 60,000 different malware in a network of virtual machines. The detection level was more than 90% at no more than 4% of false responses. And that was after half an hour of learning on a nominally "healthy" system, without us…

• Science by High-School Students: Young Engineers Presented their Projects

  …Fighting with oil spills The methods of cleaning up used these days are expensive and imperfect. Artem Starokorov, a ninth grader from Tyumen, thinks that a magnet trap is the most effective thing that can help fight oil spills. To magnetize oil, it is necessary to cover a slick with a ferromagnetic powde…

• ITMO Has Yet Again Made It Into Webometrics

  …igher School of Economics (HSE) (699th place). There were a few changes made in this years rankings. First in terms of "impact", it now takes into account each link from a subnetwork rather than all links. As of now, "openness" is based on citation rate of works by the best nine researchers according to Google Scholar. These changes didn’t affect the positions of Ru…

• ITMO Students Develop an Algorithm For Defining One’s Marital Status

  …Programmers from ITMO University and the National University of Singapore discovered that profiling a user by several social networks can be used to specify his traits. The researchers focused on defining one's marital status, and created an algorithm that can predict an internet user's marital status. To teach the algorithm to "unde…

• 13th Baltic Science and Engineering Competition: From Small Discoveries to Great Accomplishments

  … — Valeria has a tank with sturgeons equipped with this system. Petr Peresadko, eighth grader from the Moscow Region, presented the "Relsotron" project. Based on an electromagnetic launcher, it can be used in weapons and systems for cargo delivery to the orbit. According to Petr, his device resembles the system made by NASA. "I ordered details at a factory, eve…

• Small and Smaller: Micro- and Nanoscale Robotics Can Help Doctors and Ecologists

  …s will be able to serve like surgeons. Created by a 3D printer the robot consists of biopolymers. When the system is inside the organism, one can control it using electromagnetic fields, heat energy and lasers. Furthermore, it is planned to use the robot for operations at the cellular level. Using light pulses it will be possible to move electrons or other particl…
