GECCO-2016: “How to Speed Up Evolutionary Algorithms?”
…orithm (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 solut…

Moscow is Illuminated with Magic
… comprise dissimilar objects such as metals, enamel, jewels. That is why it was very difficult to make such holograms. We managed to develop holograms of St. Petersburg Fabergé collection. Then we plan to deal with Moscow one,” noted Mr. Stafeev. The second part of the exhibition is devoted to optical effects. Visitors are offered to look at relief images that …

A New Application of Well-Known Phenomena
… between reflectors affects the lifetime of photons in the microresonator. It is the Purcell effect applied for massless particles. Besides, Lamb shift is demonstrated with one distinction: instead of electron`s energy level the resonance frequency of microresonator has been changed. According to Mr. Rybin, one of the authors of the article, the results of the…

Student Entrepreneurship Trend Simulates New Contacts
…ed in many innovative initiatives and activities connected with social entrepreneurship. I am happy that Russian and American partners have the common ground providing fruitful interaction,” noted Vladimir Vasilyev. According to Nina Yanykina, head of Project Management and Innovation Department, this meeting was preceded by several joint activities. The delegat…

ITMO Fellowship Stories: The Future of Laser Technologies
…ment, which is very important for my fundamental field. I focus on micro and nano laser ablation. This phenomenon can be described as short-term laser radiation, which alters micro sections that are smaller than the hairbreadth. It leads to an extreme state of matter, high temperature (higher than solar temperature) and the pressing equivalent to pressure in the Eart…

International Year of Light Is not Over
…tles in the roof`s holes to illuminate houses without electricity in undeveloped countries. “Moser lamps” are filled with chlorinated water to prevent bacteria spread. Thanks to refraction of sunlight it lights as a 40-60-watt incandescent bulb. Nowadays this invention is widely used in Tanzania, Bangladesh, the Fiji Islands, Argentina, India and other countries. …

Experimental Interaction Design: ITMO University Students took Part in the International Winter School
…ter Graphics, ITMO University has a long standing collaboration with Tallinn University. Having visited Laboratory of User Interface Design three years ago David Lamas, head of Interaction Design Lab of Tallinn University, offered to develop a joint Master`s program based on Human-Computer Interaction program. First of all ITMO Universi…

ITMO Fellowship Stories: 'I Always Come Back to Russia'
…his problem one should divide a line into several parts and then equip them with quantum repeaters that provide entangled quantum state. Thus information transferring through these sections can be described using Bell's theorem. It is a complex method of data transfer, using which one has to save quantum state for a while. It requires quantum memory, which is based o…

Researchers Propose High-Efficiency Wireless Power Transfer System
…r by resonating at the same frequency. Nearby objects are left unaffected 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…
