• ITMO’s New AI Model Analyzes Papers 90 Times Faster

  Researchers from ITMO University and Lomonosov Moscow State University have rolled out NanoMINER – a multi-agent system that automatically extracts and processes data from scientific papers on nanomaterials and nanozymes. The algorithm analyzes each text in one minute, whereas doing it manually takes an average of 90 minutes. NanoMINER shows an impressive accuracy rate of up to 98% and can accelerate research in materials science, bionanotechnologies, and other fields. The results of the study are published in npj Computational Materials.

• AI Tool to Facilitate Mineral Processing Developed at ITMO

  Students of ITMO’s Computer Technologies Laboratory have created a series of AI models for processing of clumped texture images. AI models tend to have a hard time “seeing” the borders of objects – for instance, telling one type of mineral from another – but now they can label 600 images in an hour. The new open-source solution can be used to measure the size and distribution of various objects (granulometry) in a variety of fields: examples include precious and colored metals in mining, granular materials and crystals in food or agricultural industries, as well as oil refining.
