Kick-off meeting: Superheroes 4 Science vol.2
We are excited to announce that the Superheroes 4 Science (S4S)vol.2 kick-off meeting was held in Bratislava, Slovakia from November 28-30. The project aims to introduce the younger generation to the fascinating world of high-performance computing and focuses on creating interactive educational materials on topics such as supercomputers, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing. Teams from the Czech Republic, Poland, and Slovakia gathered at the introductory project meeting in Bratislava. It was a highly productive three days during which we had the opportunity to plan the development of various interesting educational activities and materials for you.
In addition to being a very productive meeting we also had the opportunity to see the first Slovak supercomputer from 1958. This computer was used for modeling dynamic systems and calculating differential equations, and it was in operation until 1972. We also visited the new Slovak #supercomputer Devana. Devana is a powerful machine that is capable of performing complex calculations at speeds that were unimaginable just a few decades ago.
Follow the project website and social media channels and don't miss out on various interesting educational activities and materials that we are preparing for you

AI-Driven Archaeology with LLMs — Detecting Archaeological Sites from Aerial Imagery 30 Oct - Objavte, ako umelá inteligencia a veľké jazykové modely menia spôsob, akým odhaľujeme stopy minulosti. Webinár priblíži, ako pokročilé techniky umelej inteligencie inšpirované LLM dokážu analyzovať letecké a LiDARové snímky a detegovať archeologické lokality s bezprecedentnou presnosťou. Dr. Daniel Canedo z Univerzity v Aveire predstaví praktické príklady, v ktorých Vision Transformers a multimodálne učenie odhaľujú skryté vzory v krajine a spájajú moderné technológie s kultúrnym dedičstvom.
Supercomputer for Everyone: Dare to Discover the World of Modern Computing 28 Oct - Once, supercomputers were a mysterious technology accessible only to top scientists working in futuristic laboratories. Today, however, a completely new story is being written. Supercomputers are now available to ordinary users — from universities, small companies, and even public administration — anyone who needs to handle computations far beyond the capabilities of a regular computer.
Webinar amália: Towards a Multimodal LLM for European Portuguese 27 Oct - Pridajte sa k nášmu inšpiratívnemu webináru o vývoji amália, portugalského veľkého jazykového modelu, ktorý prináša bohatstvo európskej portugalčiny do novej éry multimodálnej umelej inteligencie.
Na podujatí vystúpi prof. João Magalhães z NOVA LINCS, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, ktorý predstaví ciele, architektúru a pokrok tohto národného AI projektu. Prednáška sa zameria na to, ako amália kombinuje spracovanie textu, reči, obrazu a videa a ako prispieva k vytváraniu kultúrne ukotvených a dôveryhodných systémov umelej inteligencie pre verejný sektor, akademickú sféru a priemysel.
