The Polytechnic University hosted the tenth seminar on artificial intelligence. Participants discussed the prospects and problems associated with the implementation of AI technologies.
The invited guest of the event was Denis Pegansky, the head of a company from Omsk that creates and promotes products using AI technologies in medicine, sports and physical rehabilitation. He spoke about the results achieved and the development prospects of this area.
Denis Pegansky also heads the Agency of Sports Technologies, where specialists develop methodologies and tools for using neural networks and deep learning to solve problems. Among them are the identification and monitoring of various patterns (biomechanics of movements, stereotypes of habitual poses, etc.), forecasting trends, as well as adaptive management in healthcare, physical rehabilitation and sports.
For example, in hockey, proprietary algorithms are used to identify players, game moments and exercise types, to calculate exercise performance indicators, analyze the training process and build a movement standard. In figure skating, a pressing task is to calculate the angles of an athlete’s turn when performing a jump, which will help the jury evaluate the correctness and quality of the elements, and the performers – to improve their skills. In Russia and abroad, there are already similar systems based on computer vision, but so far they are very expensive and have a high percentage of error. To improve the quality of such neural network technologies, large datasets and new technical developments are needed. Denis Pegansky’s company is working to ensure that only one video camera is used to assess a person’s physical condition and calculate his movements.
Another area of work is the creation of an original method for assessing the parameters of movements of patients with neurological diseases and diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Based on certain parameters, the neural network draws conclusions about the patient’s condition and assesses the effectiveness of his treatment and rehabilitation. Based on the data, the doctor develops personalized recommendations.
The seminar participants asked the expert questions related to the formation of databases, the use of verified sources, and the promotion of technologies. Vice-Rector for Research at SPbPU Yuri Fomin noted that the Polytechnic University has similar projects that have commercialization potential, and they need to be developed, including by joining forces with companies already operating in the market.
Professor of the Higher School of Service and Trade of SPbPU Sergey Barykin also spoke at the seminar. He spoke about his experience of studying AI technologies in China and about the prospects for the development of hypernetworks of financial and material flows in the platform hybrid metauniverse of logistics and service.
IT advisor of the continuous education foundation “University of Development” Elena Konik presented her vision of the development of artificial intelligence in the context of mathematical analysis and the possibilities of AI technologies, in particular, for the protection of personal data.
