The sixty-first seminar will take place on May 21, 2026, at 15:00, on the 3rd floor. The topic of the seminar is “Models and Methods for Informatics, Environment, Education and Economics”. The presentation will be delivered in English.
The seminar will focus on the development of information technologies for near-duplicate document detection based on a multi-stage processing pipeline; the creation of an intelligent environmental monitoring system for pollutant emissions; the construction of information and analytical systems designed to support decision-making in water resource management; and the development and implementation of a technology for constructing the content of educational programmes through data structuring and algorithmization using artificial intelligence.
