Webinar: Teaching Machines to See Any Object
We invite you to online lecture – Training Machines to Detect Any Object, led by RNDr. Andrej Lúčny, PhD. from the Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Informatics at Comenius University in Bratislava.
Modern artificial intelligence models today enable robots to recognize objects from predefined categories. However, the challenge remains the ability to perceive any object as an independent entity. A major breakthrough in this area came with visual transformers, which, since 2020, have made it possible to infer the position of an object as a byproduct of the image classification process.

Success story: AI Helps Save Women’s Lives 17 Dec - Strach z rakoviny prsníka je tichým spoločníkom mnohých žien. Stačí jedno pozvanie na preventívne vyšetrenie, jeden telefonát od lekára či jedno čakanie na výsledky – a myseľ je plná otázok: „Som v poriadku?“ „Čo ak nie?“ „Môže sa niečo prehliadnuť?“
Aj keď skríning potvrdí negatívny nález, obavy často pretrvávajú.

Strengthening Slovak–Romanian Cooperation and the Development of Scientific Partnership 8 Dec - Romania’s National Day is a significant historical milestone commemorating the Great Union of 1918, when Transylvania, Bessarabia, and Bukovina united with the Kingdom of Romania. This moment laid the foundations of the modern Romanian state and remains a powerful symbol of national identity and unity to this day.
