• GECCO-2016: “How to Speed Up Evolutionary Algorithms?”

  …Based on ideas and principals of biological evolution a genetic algorithm (GA) is the most popular type of evolutionary computation.  GA is used for optimization purposes. It can be illustrated by the following example: if to present a problem in functional form, its` solutions will have functional values. Having evaluated the function the algorithm selects the best …

• A New Application of Well-Known Phenomena

  … vibrations that always appear in a vacuum. The combination of these vibrations with a quantum system such as atom, molecule or quantum point, results in spontaneous electromagnetic radiation of the excited system, which becomes stable after that. This phenomenon is called spontaneous emission. In 1946 Edward Purcell discovered that the speed of spontaneous emission …

• ITMO Fellowship Stories: The Future of Laser Technologies

  …ook for new fields of application. The third problem on which we focus is 3D laser recording of optical microelements such as light waveguides, hollow cells for liquids and network structures consisted of these elements that can be used in integral optics and microfluidics. Apart from that we also research physical processes that manage light waveguides and hol…

• International Year of Light Is not Over

  …anding events and scientific achievements. First of all in 1815 Augustin Fresnel introduced a concept of light wave. Then 50 years later James Maxwell formulated the electromagnetic theory of light propagation. In 1905 Albert Einstein discovered the law of the photoelectric effect and in ten years he also developed the general theory of relativity. Apart from that…

• Researchers Propose High-Efficiency Wireless Power Transfer System

  …naffected in this process as they are not tuned to the required frequency. In order to further reduce unintended interactions, wireless power systems couple the coils using magnetic fields that interact very weakly with most other objects, including biological tissues. The current study by researchers from the Metamaterials laboratory, led by Dr. Pavel Belov, prin…

• Master`s Programs of ITMO University Were Awarded With the European Quality Label

  …EUR-ACE® Label (European Accredited Engineer) is a quality certificate granted by European Network for Accreditation of Engineering Education, which consists of several international departments. Its Russian branch is called Association for Engineering Education of Russia (AEER), which was one of the founders of the Network. The AEER is…

• ITMO Fellow Talked About His Contribution to Development of Micro Lasers of the Future

  …enomenon called weak interaction is well-researched issue connected with such processes as emission and absorption of photons. That is why we focus on another way of electromagnetic interaction, which is called strong coupling. It causes inseparability of photons and electrons leading to their hybridization. It results in appearance of polaritons.   How does th…

• ITMO Fellowship`s Finalist Shared His Research Experience

  …he research projects of Master and PhD students.   You worked at three European universities. Please share your experience. My PhD thesis was connected with electromagnetic wave propagation in superconductive material. I had a six-month internship in Technical University of Denmark. Then I decided to focus on optics and started working as a postdoc fellowshi…

• Turning European Heritage Into Personalized Experience

  … and connected all aspects of museums' digital content market place and all units of the value chain that includes production, post production, distribution, consumption and monetization, which seems to be an unprecedented result for such a short time frame. It was a very inspiring meeting of like-minded people working together towards a common goal — to create one o…

  …or urban planning. The international team used the unique information about drug distribution given by Dutch police. They also analyze such open sources as blogs and social networks so as to clear up what participants serve as key elements of this criminal system and how they interact with each other and with other ones. “The police database includes informat…
