Collaborative research project funded by the Bulgarian Science Fund and performed by teams from the Institute of Information and Communication Technologies and the Institute of Neurobiology at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences led to the development of a hierarchical model of the human brain visual system. It was implemented using NEST Simulator - an open source...
The subject of this investigation is a simulation of the motion of a trimaran/ship in multiphase flow conditions – which is one of the complicated problems in the ship hydrodynamics. One of the challenges is the choice of the number of cells in the generated fine mesh. This number is important in order to receive...
Computational accelerators offer significant advantages in terms of computational power when compared with regular CPUs. However, when dealing with the problem of fast generation of low-discrepancy sequences using accelerators, one has to take into account that any complex logic operations and branches in the code require significant rewriting of the code and may become a...
The considerable technical challenge is to accurately identify, extract, transfer and integrate reliable and fast changing data from traffic events and alerts to be followed by sophisticated and exhaustive analysis (descriptive and predictive). On one hand, the large volumes of data being transferred, the enormous diversity of traffic sensors, events, and alerts to be encompassed...
Reliable, fast, and accurate transferring of environmental (meteorological) data, followed by its computational analysis (descriptive and predictive), is a considerable technical challenge. On one hand, it is difficult to methodologically organise the large volumes of data being transferred, the enormous diversity of environmental sensors used, and the proliferation of the transmission protocols. On the other...
Implement a low-cost, low-latency, high-accuracy gesture recognition solution that can be deployed on different edge platforms such as the NVIDIA Jetson Nano.
To develop a supercomputer model of the processes of Radio-Frequency (RF) Liver Ablation (a treatment based on RF alternating current flow, delivered by a needle-like probe, that destroys the undesired tumor tissue via heating). Up to O(109) unknowns with respect to space variables and O(104) time steps are needed to resolve the complex geometry...
