Votes were submitted confidentially by industry professionals attending FILTREXTM Europe, the nonwovens filter media conference and tabletop exhibition, being held in Berlin on 14-15 May 2019.

After Each nominee presented a 10-minute showcase of their innovation, Math2Market was announced as the winners with more than 50% of the vote. This recognition of the industry is represented by a trophy featuring an artist’s view of a filter media performance.

Math2Market were hnoured for their innovative and easy-to-use FiberFind-AI module of Geodict software. This material simulator claimed to be the most complete solution for multi-scale 3D image processing and material modelling. FiberFind uses modelled nonwoven microstructures to train a neural network to label binder with artificial 3-D scans. After training, the neural network also recognizes the binder in 3-D scans of real nonwovens.

Dr. – Ing Mehdi Azimian (pictured above) stated “On behalf of Math2Market, it is a great honour to win the FILTREXTM Innovation Award 2019 in Berlin. This will motivate us to bring more and more innovative and practical features into our scientific software GeoDict. Many thanks to EDANA team for their great and professional organization of the FILTREXTM conference. A great place to learn and network”
