As part of the implementation of the DAAD project “Digital Education and Artificial Intelligence”, Prof. Dr. Tetiana Tkachova, Prof. Oleg Kobylin and Prof. Sergii Sakalo from Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics visited the L3S Research Center from 11.12.2021 to 18.12.2021.
The invited professors met Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Nejdl and L3S researchers for a discussion. Other external guests, participated online in the meeting. The first speaker was Prof. Dr. Murad Omarov (Vice-Rector on International Cooperation in NURE). Among other things, he emphasized the importance of the partnership between NURE and LUH that started in 2005. Since this time, several projects were carried out within the framework of the partnership.
Associate Prof. Vasyl Lykhograi from the Department of Computer Radio Engineering and Technical Information Security Systems (hereinafter – CRETISS), Faculty of Information Radio Technologies and Technical Information Security (hereinafter – IRTIS), and Prof. Sergii Sakalo, the dean of the faculty mentioned above, presented scientific findings in the fields of Wireless power transmission for different RF tasks; Power Harvesting via RF waves; UWB antenna with different form of the generatrix; Antenna system for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) passive radio direction-finding mobile complex; Wrap-around patch array antenna.
Prof. Sergii Sakalo presented the educational program “Information Technologies of the Internet of Things” on the speciality “Information Systems and Technologies”.
Prof. Oleg Kobylin (Head of the Informatics Department in NURE) gave a presentation regarding the work and structure of the department, namely, what students learn during their bachelor and master degrees, and where they can work after they graduate from KNURE.
During the meeting, the status of the integration of the AI course as part of the implementation of the DAAD project “Digital Education and Artificial Intelligence” was discussed. In addition, the possibility of a double diploma for Ukrainian and German students was considered.

Furthermore, Prof. Tetiana Tkachova, Prof. Oleg Kobylin and Prof. Sergii Sakalo were listeners of Pavia Winter School “AI in Healthcare”. They got acquainted with the materials of the lecturers who participated in the winter school. For the invited guests it was a great opportunity to participate in the winter school, to see the organisation process of it and which topics are now relevant in this area.
The Leibniz AI Lab aims to build a community involving researchers from AI, biology and medical professionals, and more to address the shared questions in personalized medicine. Together with Hannover Medical School, we invite you to attend the Leibniz AI Lab Summer School during 27.06.2022 – 01.07.2022.
The intensive one-week school brings eminent scientists from diverse domains to inspire and guide students and early career researchers. The well-designed tutorials and hands-on sessions in data science, bioinformatics, and computational biology will cover introductory to advanced topics. We will have several keynotes to further inspire and showcase the opportunities and challenges in this interdisciplinary field.
In light of improving COVID19 situation, all sessions are planned to be held on-site in Hannover.
Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics (NURE) hosted meetings with a representative of Leibniz University Hannover (LUH) – Tetiana Tolmachova, who represents the DAAD project “Digitale Bildung und künstliche Intelligenz” (DBKI) from the German side (L3S Research Center, Leibniz University Hannover, Germany).
On the first day, the Vice-Rector for International Cooperation Murad Omarov held a meeting with: Tetiana Tolmachova, DBKI project manager from the Ukrainian side – Oleksandr Kuzomin, and Head of the International Relations Department from NURE – Tetiana Tkachova. They discussed issues related to further international cooperation, dual degree, and international academic mobility for participants in the educational process.
During the week of stay in Kharkiv, Tetiana Tolmachova held two presentations with the students from different faculties. She was talking with participants regarding international academic mobility and how students can participate in projects or write their theses in L3S.
Questions regarding the submission of documents for participation in international academic mobility projects can be sent to project managers and the International Relations Department of NURE: .

From 22.11.2021 until 26.11.2021 the international office team in Leibniz University Hanover organizes an Online Outgoing Week (on Stud.IP). During this week, the international office team and their partners will introduce to the students and staff countries-partners and universities – opportunities to participate in summer schools, student exchanges, etc.
In April 2021 within the framework of the project, Tetiana Tolmachova gave an online presentation to 56 students of the Informatic Department (KNURE) with the support of Oleg Kobylin, head of the Informatics Department.
The main point of the presentation was to tell Ukrainian students about the possibility of studying at L3S (LUH) — doing an internship or writing a diploma thesis.
In addition, to the presentation joined Nataliya Butych (Regional Coordinator for Central and Eastern Europe at LUH), who helped to answer students’ questions regarding cooperation and the learning process.
Bachelor student Vasym Ardasov started his internship in L3S for 3 months. He came to Hannover and during his stay in summer semester 2021 in LUH he will write his thesis under the supervision on the topic “Development and implementation of the method of detecting medical masks on faces”.
Vadym Ardasov: “I am developing a system for detecting medical masks on human faces. Parts of my work: 1. Prepare ‘fake’ dataset with human faces that wearing medical masks; 2. Teach model to detect is there mask or not on face; 3. Teach model to recognize person in medical mask (optional, if it is possible); 4. Use of the model in applied business problems.”
