Mgr. Mária Derková, PhD.

Since 2021, SHMÚ has been using the modern computing system NEC-LX, which significantly contributes to weather forecasting. Its main tool is the ALADIN numerical weather prediction model, which runs continuously on this system. In the lecture, we will demonstrate how ALADIN is used in various areas — not only in weather forecasting, but also in computations related to climate, water, and air quality. More information

RNDr. Andrej Lúčny, PhD.
Registration
Modern models enable robots to recognize objects from a predetermined set of categories. However, the challenge remains to perceive any object as an independent entity. A breakthrough came with visual transformers (2020), which can derive an object’s location as a byproduct of image classification. The DINO model (2021), trained without annotations, has been successfully used to guide a humanoid robot’s attention. More information

Dr. Mazhar Malik
Registration
Handling digital forensics in large-scale environments demands immense computational resources. This session will demonstrate how HPC accelerates the forensic analysis of cyber incidents, supports large dataset examination, and enables faster threat identification. Use cases from industry and public sector investigations will be discussed.
