More than 50 Russian and foreign researchers in the field of artificial intelligence from Ulyanovsk, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Baku, Smolensk, Tver, Veliky Novgorod, Tolyatti, Stary Oskol, Samara and others took part in the conference.

At four breakout sessions, more than thirty scientific reports were presented on the following topics: “Applied Intelligent Systems”, “Intelligent Systems in the industry”, “Semantic technologies in design”, “Data mining”.

Within the framework of the conference, an excursion around the industrial park “Zavolzhye” took place, and the city visitors also visited the Ulyanovsk Nanocenter. As part of the excursion, the work of innovative laboratories and sites aimed at the synthesis of unique materials used in industry and construction (functional thin-film coatings, diatomite-based waterproofing coatings, lightweight concrete based on high-strength claydite, drainage concrete), as well as research non-invasive prenatal diagnosis and diagnosis of cancer.

In addition, the researchers visited the laboratory of the company Rugadget, specializing in the development of electronic devices, the Internet of things, personal gadgets and specialized devices.

Also within the framework of the conference was held a round table dedicated to the Father of fuzzy logic Lotfi Zadeh. Shahnaz Shahbazov, a colleague and close friend of the Great Researcher, professor at the Azerbaijan Technical University (Baku), became the chairman of the round table. In her report, she touched on the main achievements of Lotfi Zade in the field of artificial intelligence, and also shared unique videos and photos from the scientific collection of the founder of the theory of fuzzy systems.

The international conference Fuzzy Technologies in the Industry – 2018 has become the basis for fruitful work and maintaining effective professional cooperation among researchers in the field of fuzzy systems and soft computing in Ulyanovsk, Russia and foreign colleagues.
