We are excited to share that the PandaChat team took first place at the FRI Data Science Project Competition 2024 at the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Computer and Information Science.
Innovation powered by PandaChat
First, we want to congratulate Valter Hudovernik, Martin Jurkovic, and Uroš Kozole for their project One Size Fits All Relational Database Predictor. Their universal GNN learns from data automatically and selects the right patterns without requiring users to train the model. This achievement grew from strong teamwork, close collaboration with PC7, and the guidance of prof. dr. Erik Štrumbelj. It is always energizing to watch new ideas evolve, especially when they push PandaChat to new levels.

In addition, we want to highlight the talented group of Amer Mujagić, Dino Ahmetbegović, and Hamza Kolašinac. Their project Recovering Relational Structure from a Set of Files showcased curiosity, technical depth, and creative problem solving.
Supporting talent and building the future
As sponsors of FRI’s Data Science Master’s Program, we remain committed to supporting a space where students can explore, experiment, and build with PandaChat at the center of their research. This connection between education and real industry challenges matters deeply to us, because it helps new talent grow with confidence and purpose.
Looking ahead, we are proud of every team we collaborated with this year. We cannot wait to see what future innovators will create next. Panda paws up to all of you 🐼✨
