This event will sum up current directions of AI research and applications, point out the most pressing open application problems that ought to be addressed by AI, and facilitate networking between various actors in the field of AI research and applications.

 

The workshop will provide an international discussion forum and informal networking event over the topics related to all aspects of research and applications of AI and their relation to European and international policies and funding. It will take advantage of the specific challenges, unique research environment, national and regional research policies, and the application potential of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Poland. Since the total number of the participants is limited to 40, the preference will be given to the researchers with the concrete project idea.
