Researchers ‘Personalise’ the Selection of a Neural Network for Face Recognition on Smartphones
Researchers from HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod, MISIS and the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute (AIRI) have developed an algorithm that selects the best available neural network for facial recognition, taking into account the features of a mobile device. This new approach accelerates the selection of the most suitable neural network and allows the identification of people with an accuracy rate of up to 99%. The study was published in the IEEE Access journal. The source code is available on GitHub.

‘Bots Are Simply Imitators, not Artists’: How to Distinguish Artificial Intellect from a Real Author
Today, text bots like ChatGPT are doing many tasks that were originally human work. In our place, they can rewrite ‘War and Peace’ in a Shakespearean style, write a thesis on Ancient Mesopotamia, or create a Valentine’s Day card. But is there any way to identify an AI-generated text and distinguish it from works done by a human being? Can we catch out a robot? The Deputy Head of the HSE School of Data Analysis and Artificial Intelligence, Professor of the HSE Faculty of Computer Science Vasilii Gromov explained the answer in his lecture ‘Catch out a Bot, or the Large-Scale Structure of Natural Intelligence’ for Znanie intellectual society.
