• Teaching the Machine: The Prospects of Neural Networks

  …sentation of words. This is a different field of machine learning which deals with words, and not images. What is the project's idea? There are several algorithms that allow obtaining vectors of statements, and comparing them with vectors of concepts, like "right" or "wrong". Thus, we can see how well can a neural network discern these concepts and will it be able to…

• New Program for Crowd Behavior Analysis

  …ware," says Vladislav Karbovsky, senior researcher at eScience Research Institute. "We used context adaptation to get an accurate picture of what happens and diminish the uncertainty we face when making a model of crowd behavior." Agent-based models solve two problems: firstly, they help make short-term forecasts that explain "what will happen if…" - they simulate …

  … a significant drawback. A polymer material is composed of molecules. Their chaotic arrangement leaves "pores" - they can take up to 10% of the polymer's volume, and can contain pathogenic microorganisms. This can result in dangerous infections, inflammations, as well as rejection of adjacent tissues. "Introduction of a polymer inside the organism can lead to ti…

• Fourth Session of Hermitage’s Art&Science Project: Laser Technologies and Interactive Art Installations

  …d robots that look for socket in a room so as to help if somebody’s phone battery is low. They look like spiders with several pairs of eyes and legs. Aquaponics The Farm Fountain is a giant fish tank where fish waste is used as nutrition for plant roots. The system works in such a way that plants purify the water for fish. Mr. Renaldo created this project in allian…

• 5 Things You Need to Know Now

  …" after chronic exposure to nanoparticles of titanium dioxide, a common food additive found in everything from chewing gum to bread. "Live" gloves light up when touching certain chemicals. Engineers and biologists at MIT have teamed up to design a new "living material"—a tough, stretchy, biocompatible sheet of hydrogel injected with live cells that are genetically…

• A Cubic Centimeter-size Charger to Save Your Day

  …en better. This was the approach we used for our project. The other factor that led me to this idea is my personal experience. I've been hiking for many years, been in the mountains. In many cases, there was no sun to use solar batteries, and no firewood to cook on, so we used gas. The only connection to the outside world was by using a radiophone. We kept spare batt…

• Network Function Virtualization — Hardware Solutions, Be No More

  … minimal set, satisfying the customer's requests often calls for special devices. Thus, the provider has to buy additional equipment and launch new services. "Buying and maintaining such equipment can be very expensive. Also, it is impossible to increase its efficiency with just software — you'd need to buy new equipment, again. It is impossible to forecast the equ…

• The "Dream Tasks" of Photonics: Sergei Makarov and Anvar Zakhidov Share about ITMO’s Collaboration on Hybrid Perovskites

  …and what were its consequences? Some hundred years ago perovskite was known only as a rare natural material — calcium titanate (TiCaO3). It was first discovered in Ural Mountains, Russia, and was named after count Lev Perovsky (the perovskites' general formula was called the Perovskit structure). Yet, the new breakthrough in studying a similar material with slight…

  …nternet advertising in 190 countries. The company's specialists have developed a special program solution for this platform, which was designed to deal with high loads and maintains up to 150 million ads a day, underlined Yuri Sobolev. According to the agreement, ITMO will collaborate with Mediatech in two main directions. The first is organization of short and lo…

• From dry Statistics to Reality: the Experts Explain How Numbers Reflect the State of Russian Science

  …, Russia spends a lot on science. Yet, if we look at this money as a share of the country’s GDP, the situation becomes different: it turns out that in comparison with Great Britain, for instance, Russia spends much fewer. Mr. Fursov also adds that apart from scope of financing, one has to reckon with sources. In almost all states, apart from those with centralized g…
