Advanced Methods and Technologies in Data Science and Cooperative Systems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Project DATACROSS <\/strong>gathers a network of leading Croatian higher education and scientific research institutions with the aim of strengthening cooperation in the field of scientific research, technology development, and knowledge transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project holder is University of Zagreb, Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing<\/strong>, and in which more partner institutions from different parts of Croatia participate in its implementation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DATACROSS is a project of the Center of Excellence for Data Science and Cooperative Systems (CoE ACROSS-DataScience) which deals with research problems of developing advanced methods and technologies for analyzing heterogeneous data and shaping complex cooperative systems.
The project represents a turning point because it will significantly strengthen the research capacity of the ZCI, enabling a high intensity of cutting-edge scientific research and the transfer of knowledge and technologies to the economy. This will have significant positive long-term effects on strengthening the research sector and economy in the Republic of Croatia and the EU, as well as Croatian society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project fosters interdisciplinary collaboration between faculties of technical, natural, and traffic sciences, as well as scientific institutes, thereby creating a strong platform for the development of innovative solutions and the advancement of scientific excellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through joint activities, partners work on developing new research approaches, strengthening institutional capacities, exchanging knowledge and experiences, and encouraging the inclusion of young researchers in scientific and development projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
