Computer vision systems
Algorithms for analyzing images, video, objects, scenes and visual patterns.
In 2024–2025, company employees published more than 80 scientific papers and research works in Russian and international journals and took part in dozens of scientific conferences in Russia and Europe.
The main research topics are related to developing algorithms for automated construction of machine learning models. Our research is conducted in the following areas:
Algorithms for analyzing images, video, objects, scenes and visual patterns.
Research in language models, text processing and knowledge representation.
Generative models for images, vector graphics, text and multimodal data.
Methods for automated construction, selection and optimization of machine learning models.
Multimodal models that connect visual information and natural language.
Methods for finding unusual objects, events, deviations and hidden structures in data.
Text analysis, entity extraction, semantic search and language data processing.
Search, ranking, matching and work with large data corpora.
Methods for identifying structures, classes, regions and semantic fragments in data.
Analysis of latent connections, dependencies and recurring structures in complex datasets.
Most of our developments in data analysis and machine learning are closely connected with scientific work conducted at the Faculty of Information Technologies and Programming of ITMO University in Saint Petersburg. Our team members include young scientists, university research laboratory staff and participants in research projects implemented jointly with leading Russian and international institutes. We are proud that our technologies and products are developed at the intersection of mathematics, programming and big data visualization and find use in different areas of everyday human activity.
