How they use Nebius AI Cloud
University of Cambridge researcher Justin Tan contributed to a multi-institution project on the Hadamard maximal determinant problem. The paper acknowledges cloud computing resources supplied through the Research Program of Nebius Academy. It also acknowledges project sponsorship through a gift from Nebius Inc. Nebius Science also identifies Cambridge among the participating institutions and describes cloud support through its research grant program.
The project pretrained and fine-tuned reinforcement learning policies to reconstruct binary sequences, then sampled trained policies on unseen targets. It combined learning with arithmetic feasibility tests and parallel CUDA checks. The paper reports new determinant records and improved sampling efficiency. Several other providers also supplied computing resources.
Nebius separately supported the January 2025 AI x Cancer Bio Hackathon at Cambridge. Announcements offered participants cloud resources, including GPUs and VMs, and cloud-credit prizes. Nebius specified H100 infrastructure. The CRUK Cambridge Centre recap confirms that the event took place and thanks Nebius for prizes.
