First Place in the First Hackathon Across

June 10, 2025

The team formed by our researchers Uma Lal-Trehan, Cansu Yalçin, Agustín Cartaya, Micaela Rivas, and Adrià Casamitjana has been declared the winner of the first Hackathon Across, held on June 4, 2025, in Craiova, Romania. This European event, which brought together eleven teams from various universities within the Across Alliance, aimed to promote the practical application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the fields of education and science.

The team stood out with an innovative proposal: an application capable of intelligently classifying scientific articles through recommendation systems and advanced AI algorithms. Developed using Python, TensorFlow, Scikit-Learn, and Google Collab, this tool combines technical robustness with an intuitive interface, facilitating the management and consultation of academic literature.

The presented solution was praised by the jury for its functionality and potential impact, earning the team a one-week research stay at the University of Craiova, as well as gift vouchers for each member. This experience allowed participants to apply their programming and problem-solving skills, strengthening the interdisciplinary and collaborative work that defines the Across Alliance.
