Summary of FIT CTU student research blogposts for 2019
Three years ago, our faculty started to support students with research ambitions. Since then, our summer research program has grown to over 50 participants from bachelor and master programs. This summer, each funded student has to write a blogpost about the research project she/he elaborates with her/his mentor. The research project is later finalized by submitting a research paper intended for a scientific journal or conference.
This publication will bring you interesting blogposts submitted by our students. We will release them one by one.
Here is the summary of 2019 projects
Matej Choma with his mentors Karel Klouda (FIT CTU) and Kuba Bartel (FIT CTU alumni, Meteopress company) is improving weather forecast by using deep neural networks. First results look promising, traditional methods have been outperformed by a large margin. Thanks to this project, we are starting more intense research collaboration with Meteopress.
Anna Moudrá with her mentor Michal Haindl is designing an algorithm that is able to discover possible archeological sites from aerial images.
Vojtěch Tomas with his mentor Radek Richtr is developing new scientific visualization methods for the motion of fluid, electromagnetic field or plasma flow.
Radek Ježek with his mentor Marcel Jiřina is exploring video synchronization and other techniques to improve hand and body detection for customer behaviour analytics.
Tomáš Chobola with his mentor Magda Friedjungová is modifying generative adversarial networks (GANs), and variational autoencoders (VAEs) to better suit the symmetric heterogeneous transfer learning task.
More blogposts will follow. Let us know, if you like to work with us. Contact bachelor-admissions@fit.cvut.cz or master-admissions@fit.cvut.cz for the bachelor or master programme taught in English. We are also looking for senior researchers and professors willing to join our young and progressive faculty in Prague. If you work for an innovative company, we provide contract research in areas related to above blogposts.
