Inovacioni radar Evropske komisije prepoznaje Prirodno-matematički fakultet Univerziteta u Novom Sadu kao „ključnog inovatora“ za 6 novih inovacija u okviru istraživačko-inovativnog projekta PANDORA, koji finansira EU kroz program Horizont Evropa
Projekat PANDORA (Horizont Evropa) se fokusira na unapređenje veštačke inteligencije i inženjeringa podataka kako bi se podstakle industrijske inovacije i unapredila ekonomija EU. Bavi se izazovima u obradi podataka generisanih Internetom stvari (Iternet of Things), sa ciljem stvaranja jedinstvenog tržišta podataka za globalnu konkurentnost Evrope. PANDORA ima za cilj da razvije okvire vođene veštačkom inteligencijom za pripremu i isporuku pouzdanih skupova podataka, poboljšavajući tačnost i održivost veštačkih modela u IoT sistemima. Misija PANDOA projekta je povećanje autonomije, pouzdanosti i energetske efikasnosti u upravljanju skupovima podataka IoT-a za pametnije i brže uređaje u ekosistemima pametnih okruženja. Zamolili smo rukovodioca projekta na PMF-u, prof. Dušana Jakovetića i njegov tim, da nam objasne prirodu ovih inovacija.
Automated Data Labelling & Annotation Tool (DACL)
Ova inovacija omogućava pripremu podataka za treniranje AI modela na osnovu nekompletnih podataka prikupljenih u industrijskim okruženjima. Inovacija objedinjuje mehanizme za izvođenje nedostajućih vrednosti na osnovu transfer learning tehnika mašinskog učenja, automatsko labeliranje parcijalno-labeliranih podataka i njihovu augmentaciju koristeći fundamentalne modele za tabelarne podatke, te kontrolu kvaliteta baziranu na detekciji autlajera. Inovaciju relizovala Dušica Knežević.
Ova inovacija omogućava kontinualno treniranje prediktivnih AI modela. Ključni inovativni element je energetski-efikasno ažuriranje prediktivnih modela u operativnoj fazi njihovog korišćenja u industrijskim okruženjima, bez kompletnog, vremenski zahtevnog retreniranja modela, a uz očuvanje prediktivnih performansi za promenljive tokove trening podataka. Za razliku od prethodnih pristupa kontinualnom učenju koji adresiraju probleme klasifikacije, ova inovacija se bavi problematikom predviđanja numeričkih varijabli, te tako zadovoljava realne potrebe industrijskih okruženja koja koriste AI tehnologije za kontrolu i upravljanje proizvodnim procesima. Inovaciju su realizovali Stefan Nikolić i Dušan Simić.
Federated Representational Learning Module (FRLM)
Ova inovacija omogućava kolektivno (federativno) treniranje modela za redukciju dimenzionalnosti podataka i detekciju anomalija u distribuiranim industrijskim sistemima zasnovanim na IoT tehnologijama. Ključni inovativni element je primena memorijskih auto-enkodera adaptiranih za distribuirana okruženja u kojima IoT uređaji prikupljaju visoko-dimenzionalne podatke. Inovaciju realizovao Mihailo Ilić.
Adaptive Federated AI Training Service https://innovation-radar.ec.europa.eu/innovation/67431
Ova inovacija kombinuje CRV i FRLM inovacije u servis za treniranje raznorodnih AI modela u AIoT sistemima. Inovacija obezbeđuje kompatibilnost UNSPMF inovativnih pristupa kontinualnom i federativnom učenju u industrijskim okruženjima sa modernim MLOps alatima i praksama. Inovaciju su realizovali Mihailo Ilić, Dušan Simić i Stefan Nikolić.
Inovacije Data Summarization and Fusion Component (DRFEC) i Trustworthy Data Generation and Annotation Service su inovacije u kojima je UNSPMF davao istraživačku ekspertizu za druge PANDORA partnere koji su bili tehnički realizatori tih inovacija.
Čestitamo PANDORA timu sa Prirodno-matematičkog fakulteta!

EINSTEIN Project International Conference: From Local Excellence to Global Impact
Importance of internationalization for reaching R&I excellence
Gordana Vlahović, Head of International and Project Office at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Novi Sad, participated as a panelist in the EINSTEIN Project international conference “From Local Excellence to Global Impact: Importance of Internationalization for Reaching Research and Innovation Excellence”, held on 5 June 2026 at the University of Novi Sad.The conference brought together distinguished experts, university leaders, researchers, project managers, and internationalization professionals from across Europe to discuss the evolving role of internationalization in advancing higher education institutions, research excellence, innovation capacity, and global competitiveness.
As a participant in the round table discussion “The Importance of Internationalization and Alumni Cooperation for the Progress of Higher Education Institutions,” Gordana Vlahović shared insights gained through years of experience in supporting international research collaboration, Horizon Europe participation, researcher mobility, institutional capacity building, and strategic partnership development. She emphasized that internationalization should not be seen as a collection of projects, mobility schemes, or bilateral agreements, but as a comprehensive institutional transformation process. Referring to internationally recognized concepts of Comprehensive Internationalization, she highlighted the importance of embedding international and intercultural dimensions into all core missions of the university – research, education, innovation, governance, and societal engagement. Sustainable internationalization is achieved when international cooperation becomes an integral part of institutional culture and strategic development. Strong international partnerships create a multiplier effect by generating research opportunities, attracting talent, increasing visibility, fostering innovation, and contributing to long-term institutional resilience and excellence.
Faculty of Sciences is commitment to strengthening international collaboration and expanding its role within the European and global research and education ecosystems. International and Project Office actively supports researchers, students, and academic staff in accessing international opportunities, building strategic partnerships, and enhancing participation in competitive European programmes. Gordana Vlahović highlighted the Faculty of Sciences’ commitment to transforming international cooperation into tangible institutional impact strengthening research excellence, advancing educational quality, fostering innovation, and preparing the next generation of globally connected scientists and professionals.
The conference provided an opportunity to exchange experiences with representatives of leading European universities and organizations, reaffirming the importance of collaboration, knowledge exchange, and international networking as key drivers of research and innovation excellence.
