AIMHiGH project, a FF4EuroHPC application experiment, was presented at the SmAgTech EXPO2022. Mr Stevan Cakic gave a presentation at the conference during the plenary sessions on 24 Nov 2022. AIMHIGH was also featured in the virtual EXPO platform in the Projects section.
The AIMHiGH project, a FF4EuroHPC application experiment for development of computer vision solutions for smart poultry farms, can be seen in the background at the SC22 (#SC22) exhibition booth for FF4EuroHPC during the International Conference on High Performance Computing, Storage and Analysis (Dallas, Texas). AIMHiGH was featured as one of the success stories of the FF4EuroHPC project. Learn more about the FF4EuroHPC project and check out the success stories at the following link.
One of our Euro CC members, dr Armin Alibasic got an invitation to speak at the workshop Human Engagement in HPC. Dr Alibasic presented our success stories on how to engage younger students, including high schools, on HPC. Regarding this topic, one of our biggest achievements is creating an Open Mind academy where so far we had over 200 high school students participating in our training on courses such as Analyzing Social Media Trends, Python Video Game Programming, HPC/AI and Machine Learning, Parallel Programming, Hugging Face, and others.
In addition, he talked about several lectures held at UDG where we invited young researches which gave a very interesting talks on AI/ML and their practical applications. Finally, dr Alibasic concluded by mentioning several conferences organized withing Montenegro, but as well the international events.
The second consecutive virtual online fair “SmAgTech EXPO 2022” on the application of information and communication technologies in agriculture, will be held in the period 23-24/11/2022. The fair is organized within the ERASMUS+ project VIRAL. More than 60 institutions, companies, projects, and programs in the fields of agriculture and ICT will be presented at the fair. Through 20 plenary and section lectures, visitors will be able to hear more about new scientific and practical knowledge in this field. A representative from NCC Montenegro, mr Stevan Cakic, will give a presentation on the use of HPC/AI to develop computer vision solutions for smart poultry farms. More information about the event can be found on the following link.
Workshop on AI/ML applications by Hugging Face company! Johannes Colbe presenting Hugging Face company, vision, and community took place on November 2nd. The presentation and workshop discussed some practical aspects on how to collaboratively create ML models and use Open Source tools. Mr Stevan Čakić from NCC Montenegro is moderated the workshop. The presentation is attended by several students and representatives of academia and industry from Montenegro.
How can you show what a Machine Learning model does once it’s trained?
In this talk, you’re going to learn how to create Machine Learning apps and demos using Streamlit and Gradio, Python libraries for this purpose. Additionally, you’ll see how to share them with the rest of the Open Source ecosystem. Learning to create graphic interfaces for models is extremely useful for sharing with other people interesting them. The lecture will take place on 2 November 2022, 18:30h. Expected duration is 1 hour.

FF4EuroHPC Experiment 1003 focused on AI/ML Based Computer Vision for Next Generation Poultry Farms was presented at the OC1 Workshop today. We discussed the project objectives, experiment approach, the benefits of the use of HPC and Deep Learning. Learn more about FF4EuroHPC project and HPC experiments at https://www.ff4eurohpc.eu/.
The fourth workshop took place on October 19th, 2022 and included presentations of the experiments related to Maintenance, Agriculture & Assets Management Sectors. University of Donja Gorica and NCC Montenegro were part of the experiment presentation related to the use of HPC to develop AI/ML computer vision solutions for smart agriculture.
