Every year, the International Student Research Competition in Artificial Intelligence brings together young researchers who propose innovative solutions and new ideas from computer vision to natural language processing. Increasingly, the competition places a special emphasis on the application of AI in medicine and biomedical engineering.
This year, among the 15 projects that reached the finals, three winners represented the National Technical University of Ukraine “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute”.
We are especially pleased to highlight the achievement of the KPI biomedical community:
Svitlana Mykhailenko, a representative of the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, took third place with the project “Identification of predictors of post-traumatic stress disorder diagnosis based on the parameters of BOLD signal connectivity models of brain structures”. Her work demonstrates how modern artificial intelligence models can become a tool for early detection and prediction of mental health conditions, which is extremely relevant for Ukraine in the context of post-war rehabilitation. One of the competition’s sponsors, DataArt AI, presented Svitlana with gifts.
First place was awarded to Danil Brovko, a student of the Institute for Applied System Analysis (IASA) at KPI, for his project
“SpectralCA: Bi-Direction Cross-Attention for Next-Generation UAV Hyperspectral Vision”. For his victory, he received a certificate for 30,000 UAH from the competition’s general sponsor Credit Agricole Bank. His development focuses on creating a next-generation hyperspectral vision system for unmanned aerial vehicles, with a wide range of potential applications from environmental monitoring to civil security tasks.
Another third place went to the project of IASA student Artem Holovachov “Aircraft Trajectory Generation Method Based on Visual Transformer”. He also received gifts from DataArt.
We sincerely congratulate the winners from Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute and wish them further academic success, new bright ideas, and the implementation of even more interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of artificial intelligence, aerospace technologies, and biomedical engineering.
