RUDN took part in the 23rd annual conference of the International Open Innovation Association FRUCT– IEEE FRUCT 2018

The International Open Innovation Association FRUCT is a major pan-European cooperation network that promotes the development of open innovation in academia and industry, and annually holds scientific events for meetings of academia and business people and the creation of innovative projects.
The conference attracts the most active and talented scientists to present their projects in the field of R&D, create new teams and search for employers and investors. The conference offers world-class scientists and industrial experts to lecture on the most relevant topics. During the program were held meetings of FRUCT working groups and intensive technology trainings, sessions, and thematic seminars.
This year, RUDN University was represented by Anna Ostrovskaya, Director of the Center of Management of Industries at RUDN University Faculty of Economics, who made a presentation on the comparison of various neural network architectures for the segmentation of satellite images following the next stage of the joint project on the development of application solutions in the field of processing and integration in a unique geospace large volumes of heterogeneous operational, retrospective and thematic data of remote sensing of the Earth using digital, intellectual technology and artificial intelligence.
In a report prepared jointly with scientists of the Yaroslavl State University. P.G. Demidov (V. Khryashchev, L. Ivanovsky, V. Pavlov) were presented the results of a study of three different architectures of convolutional neural networks for detecting objects on satellite images from the DSTL, Landsat-8 and PlanetScope databases. To analyze the accuracy of the algorithms, the results were compared with areas previously marked by experts. Such segmentation of satellite images finds its application in the field of urban planning, for climate modeling, etc.
During the conference, were made suggestions and recommendations for the development of international cooperation. Including following results of negotiations with the chairman of the program committee of the conference, Professor Sergey Balandin, the possibility is being considered of conducting joint research by research teams and joining RUDN University to the number of universities participating in FRUCT Association.
Being a scientist means creating a better future for the country and the world! RUDN scientists set ambitious goals for themselves, conduct advanced scientific research, make discoveries and bring Russian technologies to foreign markets. They have at their disposal more than 200 laboratories with modern high—tech equipment. Every year, RUDN holds more than 150 international scientific events, and university scientists patent about 100 new developments. Advances in research — from new cancer treatments to “cleaning up” space debris — are designed to improve human life.
At the suggestion of the Royal Society, for the first time in history, scientists of a Russian university — from the Institute of Gravitation and Cosmology of RUDN, Professors Spiros Cotsakis (Greece) and Alexander P. Yefremov (Russia) — were invited as responsible editors and authors of a special thematic issue “The Future of Mathematical Cosmology” of the scientific journal Philosophical Transactions (series A, quartile Q1).
On January 21, 2021, the ceremony of awarding was held in the The Moscow Digital Business Space
