Why It’s Worth Going

  • Talk in person

    To see old friends. To discuss current problems. To come up with new ideas. To debate and just chat.

  • Switch the format to offline

    To have a change of scenery, to distract and have a good time. To gain fresh impressions and new acquaintances.

Broadcast

There will be a broadcast on the Offline day of the conference, which is available to participants with any ticket. If you want to meet and interact with the speakers and other participants live,we are waiting for you at the venue. And if you are not ready to get to the venue, recordings of all the talks and activities will be waiting for you on this website.

    Writing backend for indie game. Scoreboard, events, chat, pain

    In 2016, Anton started writing a single-player browser game based on Travian and Heroes in JS. Five years and 30K SLOC later, he decided to add common events for all players. And so it went: the announcement system, the table of records, the events themselves, the distribution of rewards. Everything was done in a simple way, on Flask. Then the chat provider "tightened the screws" and before the release of the beta had to write his own chat. 
    On the day of release, 31.12.2021, Anton found out how bad the idea was :)

    CV in the archive: digitization of microfilms

    The researchers at European University (and not only there) face large inconveniences when working with microfilms, reduced copies of paper documents on film. They addressed the problem to the director of the Center for Machine Learning. There was developed an algorithm which allows you to convert the video of browsing the slides on microfilm into a ready PDF. Telegram bot was also designed for users.

    Technologies: ML and neural networks (PyTorch, YOLO, DBSCAN), libraries for working with computer vision (OpenCV, sciPy), AIOGram bot. 

    Target audience: people who want to do computer vision, but do not know what to begin with, experts in CV and its researchers.

    ETNA: the challenges of developing an open source framework for time series

    Speakers will tell why in their team decided to develop their own open source framework for working with time series in Python, what pains they experienced during the development process and how they tried to solve them.

    The problems they will talk about are not tied to the specifics of their framework and can occur in any open source project. In this sense, the talk will be interesting for a wide range of developers and will be both instructive and entertaining.

    Introduction to GPGPU for Python Programmers

    Python is widely used for mathematical calculations. In many cases, performance is a critical issue in such calculations. Any modern computer is equipped with a graphics processor. Often it has significantly better computational performance than the CPU. You'll learn how and in what situations you can quickly incorporate the power of the GPU into your Python code in your calculations without having to program the graphics cards yourself.

    About the 2022 trends in NLP

    Just as the work on AlexNet in 2012 made a significant breakthrough in the field of CV, Annention Is All You Need in 2017 allowed us to assess just how deep the rabbit hole is for the world of NLP.

    Let's discuss the past, present and future of this ML trend with natural language processing experts.

    Is it time to give up on classic feature extraction from texts in the age of Transformers? How suitable are NLP methods for formal programming languages? How to take the Turing test now without registration and SMS and much more.

    Clean Python code: myths, facts, and double standards

    We've all read Robert Martin's book on clean code and love PEP8. And it's true: many people follow best practices in their development. But are they all the best, and who are they all?

    The speakers have analyzed over five thousand popular open source projects and are happy to share the results with the community. Let's talk about them both in terms of analysis methodology and interesting findings.
