İlhama Novruzova
I participated as a mentor in the Summer Camp for High School Girl Students organized by Azerbaijani Women in Science.
I co-founded and serve as CEO of VerifAI where I provide automated insights on the privacy, fairness, and accuracy of AI systems. The research paper behind this application was accepted at the 19th AICT conference in UAE. Additionally, the startup was selected as the best startup at TechFront 2025 conference at ADA University, successfully completed the Azercell Incubation Program and the "Green and Digital Silk Road" international acceleration program. I also had the opportunity to give a speech at an event organized by GDG Baku and Women Techmakers Baku. I am the vice-president of ADA ACM Student Chapter and organized 20 events this year, most of which were based on my ideas. These events included participation from up to 120 students of any university, nationality, or gender. The chapter was recognized multiple times on official ACM channels and websites. Recently, we were interviewed by the ACM-W global organization for women, sharing our experiences, tips, and future vision. As part of my Deep Learning course, I led a team in the Azerbaijani Art Classification project. We manually created a dataset of Azerbaijani artworks, shared it publicly, and developed a machine learning model that classifies these works with 98% accuracy.
