General information

Name of the project: Scalable networks of AI systems for analysis of data of increasing dimensionality


Goals and objectives

Research directions: Computer and information sciences

Project objective: Developing prospective methods of intellectual high dimensional data analysis optimized for working with high dimensional (tens and hundreds) to very high dimensional (thousands, tens of thousands) dimensions

The practical value of the study

Scientific results:

The result of the implementation of the project is the creation of a new world-class laboratory on the grounds of the Nizhniy Novgorod State University devoted to methods of the analysis of multi-dimensional data. This resulted in the solution of scientific problems and the development of research domains joint by the common united by the common goal of developing promising methods of the intelligent analysis of high-dimensionality data optimized for working in high (tens and hundreds) and very high (thousands, tens of thousands and more) dimensionality.

The particular results of our research are:

  1. A software and hardware complex for electrocardiographic measurements (a patent for invention).
