Havana, Dec 15.- A team of Cuban professionals continues its experiments related to the project called Improvement, segmentation and deep learning of nano bioimages for the parallel processing of large volumes of data.
The research on this matter is part of the National Nanosciences and Nanotechnologies Program, presented in December 2019 by Elba Rosa Pérez Montoya, Minister of Science, Technology and Environment (CITMA) to the Council of Ministers.
Experts from the Center for Advanced Studies (CEA) and the Institute of Cybernetics, Mathematics and Physics (ICIMAF), promoters of the initiative, continue their efforts to consolidate a cloud with its corresponding servers, the doctor of sciences Roberto Rodríguez Morales commented exclusively to the Cuban News Agency.
He added that when this unlimited data storage platform that is hosted on the web is ready, it will have various work options and can even be accessed from a Laptop, mobile phone or PC with certain programs.
Among them will be MATLAB, Python, C++ and Mathematics, among others, it will have more than 250 parallel processors and many other possibilities in full service by 2024, according to Rodríguez Morales
The current knowledge society is characterized by the predominance of the so-called convergent technologies and Cuba is committed to the development of one of them: nanosciences and nanotechnologies, and the national strategy is being developed until 2030.
To achieve it, there are human resources prepared in universities, science, technology and innovation entities, in the Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Industries Group (BioCubaFarma), national companies and technical capacity installed in the Center for Advanced Studies and ICIMAF.
Nanosciences consist of the study of phenomena and manipulation of materials at the atomic, molecular or macromolecular scale, where properties differ significantly from those observed on a large scale.
In turn, nanotechnologies are the design, characterization, production and application of structures, devices and systems, through the control of their shapes and dimensions at a nanometric scale; That is, it is the application of the knowledge generated in nanosciences.
