The Board of Trustees issued the call for applications in autumn 2022 and published it in the bulletins of HTE and OPAKFI, on the internet, and on the notice boards of educational institutions. The competition was open to graduates — primarily engineers and physicists — submitting a summary of their independent work, articles published in field-specific journals, or a new paper as the submitted work. Applicants could hold other degrees as well, but their activity had to fall within the field of acoustics.
For the 2022 call, submitted works presenting the author's own novel scientific results, theoretical or practical innovations, or developments could be entered in three topic areas:
- results achieved in multimedia-communications, acoustics, and speech research (audiovisual signal processing and transmission, electroacoustics, vibration acoustics, room acoustics, medical acoustics),
- applications of quantum communication in information technology,
- the latest possibilities for infocommunication applications of deep learning.
In 2022, the Dénes Huszty Memorial Prize consisted of a memorial plaque and a cash prize of 250,000 HUF.
Two applications were received by the stated deadline.
The applications were assessed by Dr. Fülöp Augusztinovicz, Chair of the Foundation's Board of Trustees, and the members of the Board.
The Board of Trustees decided to award a single shared prize under the 2022 competition.
Péter Pataki, MSc engineer, doctoral candidate, received the award for his submission on the application of artificial intelligence in spectrum monitoring networks.
Szilárd László Takács, MSc engineer, physicist, doctoral candidate, won the prize with his submission on the application of machine learning in the spectrum monitoring of terrestrial radio communications services and his related scientific publications.
The prize was presented at the 2023 general assembly of HTE.
