Object counting is crucial in applications ranging from cell growth analysis, to crowd estimation in video surveillance systems, to product counting on production lines. Classical methods are not applicable in these cases because they require large annotated training sets and struggle in dense scenarios. On the other hand, the methods developed at the Visual Cognitive Systems Laboratory at the Faculty of Computer Science and Information Science, University of Ljubljana, develop accurate counting with just a few training examples and represent a methodological leap in computer vision.

The digital transformation of organizations represents a necessary process for achieving competitiveness in both the economic and public sectors, thereby contributing to the development of the entire society. To encourage and accelerate this process, the European Commission has adopted two multi-annual work programs for the Digital Europe Program (DIGITAL) to support digital transformation and strengthen cybersecurity.

In the framework of the call for proposals for European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH), published by the European Commission in 2021, two Slovenian candidates were selected, the DIGI-SI consortium and SRC-EDIH, while 4PDIH obtained a Certificate of Excellence.

Optimizing a container ship's hull for both calm water and added resistance in waves is a complex technical challenge. In calm water, the focus is on reducing resistance to enhance fuel efficiency and speed. This often involves streamlining the hull shape to minimize resistance. However, in wave conditions, additional factors like wave-induced motions, wave reflection and refraction come into play. This demands an iterative approach by employing CFD simulations and HPC resources to balance streamlined shapes for calm water efficiency hull geometry features that reduce added wave resistance.

In the development of new medicinal compounds, research laboratories employ robotic equipment for high-throughput screening (HTS), which enables automated experimental in vitro biological evaluation of various compounds with a capacity of several hundred thousand compounds [1]. With the rapid advancement of computer science, this relatively expensive and complex process is complemented and being replaced by computational tools for molecular modelling.  Similar to experiments conducted in vivo or in vitro, we can also refer to experiments conducted in silico, which literally means in silicon, essentially referring to computer simulation.
