Another seminar on artificial intelligence was held at the Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University.

Opening the meeting, SPbPU Vice-Rector for Research Yuri Fomin reminded the participants of the resonance in the global community caused by the neural network of the Chinese company DeepSeek.

This reaction to artificial intelligence technologies once again confirms that they are trending today. And this adds new colors to our seminars, which we organized to talk about the research that is being conducted in our laboratories as popularly as possible. Because we, of course, will be active participants and authors of new technological solutions, – noted Yuri Vladimirovich.

The fourth Polytechnic University seminar on AI attracted the attention of not only the university audience, but also external participants — representatives of the university’s industrial partners. The report of the Vice-Rector for Digital Transformation, Head of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” Alexey Borovkov and Senior Researcher of the Engineering Center “Computer Engineering Center” of the SPbPU PISh Alexey Novokshenov on the topic “Artificial Intelligence in Industry on the CML-Bench® Digital Platform. Experience of Applying AI/ML in High-Tech Industry Tasks” was listened to with great interest. The scientists spoke about the digital platform for the development and application of CML-Bench® digital twins and the successful implementation of projects in the interests of the high-tech industry.

According to Alexey Borovkov, the digital twin market is one of the fastest growing, and today it is being integrated by the largest market for artificial intelligence technologies. In addition, he noted that the CML-Bench® digital platform received a certificate of compliance with the software security requirements of the Federal Service for Technical and Export Control (FSTEC of Russia) at the sixth level of trust at the end of 2024.

Today, our country faces an important task – achieving technological leadership, and domestic technologies, especially advanced digital and production technologies, play an important role here. Also, we should not forget about digital standardization. In 2022, the National Standard “Computer Models and Simulation. DIGITAL DOUBLES OF PRODUCTS. General Provisions” came into effect, which was developed by specialists of the NTI Center “New Production Technologies” of SPbPU together with specialists of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise “RFNC-VNIIEF” and with the participation of 25 more high-tech organizations and industry institutes. And whoever creates the standards dictates the rules, – Alexey Ivanovich emphasized and then spoke in detail about some developments using digital engineering for the fuel and energy complex and the aviation industry.

During the discussion of the report, the seminar participants also identified a number of problems: lack of funds for testing; difficulties in introducing new developments into production; insufficient preparation of applicants entering engineering specialties.

Alexey Gintsyak, head of the Digital Modeling of Industrial Systems laboratory of the Advanced Engineering School Digital Engineering, spoke about the study of approaches to creating intelligent multi-agent systems for predictive and prescriptive analytics in industry. The laboratory is part of the Scientific and Educational Center and the Association Artificial Intelligence in Industry and conducts a range of studies on forecasting and optimizing the activities of industrial enterprises. The report presented the results of fundamental projects carried out within the framework of a state assignment and with the support of the Russian Science Foundation, as well as the results of applied projects in various industries and economics: mechanical engineering, metallurgy, transport, and the oil and gas industry. In conclusion, the head of the laboratory shared plans for the further development of current research areas.

Summing up the results of the seminar, Vice-Rector for Research Yuri Fomin suggested inviting speakers from other scientific organizations and universities to the seminars, and also announced the next meeting, which will be held on February 12 in the Kapitsa Hall of the Technopolis Polytech Research Building at 2 p.m.
