    4th International Research-Centered Summer School in ?Cognitive Systems and Interactive Robotics, Social Media, Digital Preservation

    The Summer School is organized by the Interactive Robots and Media (
    http://www.irmllab.com), the Software & Knowledge Engineering Lab at the
    Institute of Informatics & Telecommunications of NCSR "Demokritos" (
    http://www.iit.demokritos.gr) and the ARCOMEM (http://www.arcomem.eu) and
    SOCIALSENSOR (http://www.socialsensor.eu) FP7 ICT research projects. This
    is the fourth summer school in a sequence initiated by the Interactive
    Robots and Media Lab. This year it will take place between July 4 and July
    31 2013, at NCSR "Demokritos", in Athens, Greece.

    The Summer School has an innovative format: it is Research-Centred, with a
    strong focus on mini-projects of month-long duration, carried out by
    multiple teams of 3-4 students including a mix of academic levels (Postdoc,
    PhD, undergraduates). Selected seminars and lectures will also take place;
    but not exceeding two hours per day. Exciting cultural events and
    excursions will take place during the weekends. The outcome of the summer
    school includes both numerous scientific publications, as well as
    longer-term collaborations.

    This year?s topic and research project areas, focus on the cognitive
    systems viewpoint, as pertaining to:
    - Human Robot Interaction and Whole-body HCI
    - Dialogue Systems and Computer Vision
    - Information Visualisation
    - Social Media Analysis and Utilization
    - Digital preservation and the Social Web
    - User Modelling and Recommendation systems
    - Affective science and computing
    - ICT for sustainable development


    The lab is equipped with multiple robots (The Ibn Sina human-size Android
    with full facial expressions, the Indigo museum guide robot, Pioneer and
    other mobile robots, manipulator arms, UAVs), as well as advanced vision
    and other sensing systems.
    In terms of computational resources, there is access to high-performance
    computation, as well as multiple workstations. There is also close contact
    with numerous world-class institutions and companies in the field, across
    three continents, and numerous distinguished invited lecturers and
    supervisors will be joining us for the summer school.

    The Social Media and Digital Preservation theme is co-organised by the
    EU-funded Integrated Project ARCOMEM. This year, a distinguished group of
    lecturers, as well as experts from the Media sector and Parliamentary
    Libraries will be present for the duration of the school that will present
    the latest scientific findings in the area. A hands-on training session
    will be available for the students on the applications and technologies of
    Digital Preservation and the Social Web.

    The SocialSensor project also supports the organization of this Summer
    School and will provide the dimension of real-time multimedia indexing and
    search in the Social Web. Engineers and researchers from the consortium of
    the project will explain how to move beyond conventional text-based
    indexing and retrieval models by mining and aggregating user inputs and
    content over multiple social networking sites. New tools for Social
    Indexing will be presented which incorporate information about the
    structure and activity of the users? social network directly into the
    multimedia analysis and search process.

    Finally, the summer school will cooperate with FONDAZIONE ROSSELLI AMERICAS
    (FRA) through its ICT4DEVIS (Information & Communication Technology for
    Development International School), to provide a better understanding on the
    use of ICT in project planning for sustainable development, specifically
    focusing on developing countries. FRA?s ICT4DEVIS is conceived as a
    for-credit, hands-on, practice oriented, cross-cultural summer school,
    intended for students, professionals and practitioners who want to pursue a
    professional career in deploying ICT as a means for international
    development. In this Summer School ICT4DEVIS will present ?best practices?
    explaining the ?life-cycle? of development projects aiming at improving the
    living conditions of developing countries, through the deployment of ICT.

    The Host Institution
    --------------------
    The National Center for Scientific Research (NCSR) ?Demokritos? is composed
    of 700+ distinguished researchers, research support professionals and
    scientific associates, and with a 50+ year experience of excellence, is
    arguably the most prestigious Hellenic research Center. NCSR is
    distinguished for supporting a visionary and dynamic research community
    that is currently under the process of re-orientating its efforts with
    emphasis on innovation exploitation and fostering of new businesses and
    synergetic cooperation with the private sector. It is comprised of five
    institutes, covering Informatics and Telecommunications, Biosciences and
    their applications, Nuclear and Radiological Sciences, Materials, Physics (
    http://www.demokritos.gr/)
    NCSR Demokritos is furthermore tightly integrated with the European
    Research ecosystem, with a long tradition of active collaboration and
    exchange. Its green campus is situated in a beautiful natural environment
    in Agia Paraskevi, Athens.

    The place
    -------------
    Athens is the historical capital of Europe, with a long history, dating
    from the first settlement in the Neolithic age. In the 5th Century BC (the
    ?Golden Age of Pericles?) ? the culmination of Athens? long, fascinating
    history ? the city?s values and civilization acquired a universal
    significance. Over the years, a multitude of conquerors occupied Athens,
    and erected unique, splendid monuments - a rare historical palimpsest. In
    1834, it became the capital of the modern Greek state and in two centuries
    since it has become an attractive modern metropolis with unrivalled charm,
    with a huge number of world-class cultural activities.

    A large part of the town?s historic centre has been converted into a
    3-kilometre pedestrian zone (the largest in Europe), leading to the major
    archaeological sites (?archaeological park?), reconstructing ? to a large
    degree ? the ancient landscape. Numerous monuments where Aristotle, Plato,
    Pericles, and others were once walking still exist today and invite you to
    enjoy the Hellenic Sun.

    Apart from the wonderful coast of Attica where you can swim or enjoy the
    thriving nightlife, within a couple of hours travel from Athens you can
    enjoy numerous historical sites, such as the oracle of Delphi or the temple
    of Sounio, as well as amazing islands such as Santorini, Mykonos, and Crete.

    This will be an unforgettable experience, not only of technology and
    collaboration, but also of some of the best that European nature and
    culture has to offer!

    Federal University of Santa Catarina, Florianopolis, Brazil

    http://www.summerscrews.org


    For its fourth edition, our summer school on screw theory moves

    to a new season and a new hemisphere. The enthusiastic feedback

    from the first three very successful Summer Screws events (in

    Genoa, in Shanghai, and again in Genoa) proves that this

    initiative continues to provide a service that the robotics

    community values. This year, with the support of the IEEE

    Robotics and Automation Society we are able to bring the school

    to a new part of the world and, for the first time, to offer

    financial support to some participants.



    Summer Screws 2013 (or should we call it Spring Screws) will

    gather six experts in the robotics applications of screw theory

    and up to 40 participants at the Federal University of Santa

    Catarina, Florianopolis, Brazil from 19 to 27 October. The

    school will teach attendees how to apply existing methods and

    empower them to develop new ones in their own research. The

    basic theoretical notions will be introduced in a rigorous

    manner, with emphasis on examples, applications, and exercises.


    The main topics will be:


    1. Basic vector-space properties of twists and wrenches:

    physical interpretation of the linear operations; linear

    dependence and independence, subspaces; bases and

    coordinates. (Lecturer: Dimiter Zlatanov)



    2. Scalar products, dual spaces, reciprocity. Constraint and

    freedom in mechanisms. Constraint analysis, type synthesis of

    single loop mechanisms, type synthesis of parallel

    manipulators. (Lecturer: Xianwen Kong)



    3. Velocity and singularity analysis of parallel and

    interconnected-chain mechanisms. Derivation of

    input-output velocity equations and singularity

    conditions. (Lecturers: Matteo Zoppi and Dimiter

    Zlatanov)



    4. Mappings between screw spaces, stiffness and inertia.

    Structure of robot compliance. Eigenvalue problems and

    eigenscrews. Synthesis with springs. (Lecturer: Harvey

    Lipkin)



    5. 6D formulation of the dynamics of individual rigid bodies

    and rigid-body systems. Equations of motion. Dynamics

    algorithms. (Lecturer: Roy Featherstone)



    6. Basic Lie group theory, matrix representations of the group

    of rigid-body displacements. Lie algebras as related to screw

    theory. The exponential map and its applications in modern

    robotics. (Lecturer: Jon Selig)



    Up to 40 registrations are available at the price of 350 USD,

    no later than 31 July, 2013. Scholarship applications will be

    accepted until 30 June, 2013. See the Dates and Costs page at

    Xperience Summer School

    www.xperience.org <http://www.xperience.org>

    October 2-5, 2013

    Cala Millor, Mallorca, Hotel Sentido Castell de Mar

    Spain


    ----------------------------

    *Aim: *

    The European Project Xperience (www.xperience.org)
    <http://www.xperience.org/>is organizing a summer school for
    international students in the field of Cognitive Robotics. The school
    will bring together scholars from Robotics and Cognitive Science in a
    program, which will allow the interested student to learn about the
    cross-links between these fields and discuss topics with leading scientists.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    *Background:*

    The Xperience Project (www.xperience.org) <http://www.xperience.org/>
    addresses the problem of generative knowledge construction in robotics
    to *rapidly create* *new concepts* and react to unanticipated situations
    using experience. This problem is addressed by structural bootstrapping,
    an idea taken from language acquisition research: knowledge about
    grammar allows a child to infer the meaning of an unknown word from its
    grammatical role together with understood remainder of the sentence.
    Structural bootstrapping generalizes this idea for general cognitive
    learning: if you know the structure of a process the role of unknown
    actions and entities can be inferred from their location and use in the
    process. This approach enables rapid generalization and allow agents to
    communicate effectively.

    Xperience aims at the implementation of complete robot systems for
    automating introspective, predictive, and interactive understanding of
    actions and dynamic situations based on structural bootstrapping.
    Xperience evaluates this on state-of-the-art humanoid robots (ARMAR and
    iCub) demonstrating rich interactions with humans.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    *Format: *

    The school is mainly intended for PhD-Students and young PostDocs.
    Participants will present their work in an interactive poster Session on
    October 4. Selected student papers will be presented orally.

    ----------------------------------------------------------

    *Topics covered:*

    Perception & action, learning, cognitive vision, developmental robotics,
    humanoid robotics, developmental and cognitive psychology, language
    acquisition, and some more (see list of speakers).

    International Summer School on Humanoid Soccer Robots 2013

    July 22nd ? July 26th, 2013

    University of Bonn, Germany

    * Abstract:
    The development of humanoid robots able to play soccer is a fundamental
    challenge problem for robotics and AI. Since the start of the humanoid
    league in 2002, there have been lots of improvements in humanoid soccer
    robots hardware and software.
    This is partially due to the introduction of standard platforms (Nao,
    DARwIn-OP, NimbRo-OP) and competitions for complex simulated robots
    (3D Simulation).
    The objective of the school is to give students deep insights into the
    currently leading approaches to bipedal locomotion, dynamic motion
    generation, environment perception, tactics, and team play.
    Lectures by leading experts will provide the necessary theoretical
    background for hands-on exercises with humanoid soccer robots.

    * The program is based on three pillars:

    -Theory:
    Ranging from biomechanics, over compliant actuation, control of balance
    during walking and dynamic motion, robot state estimation, perception of
    the game situation, behavior control architectures, motion planning,
    and multi-agent systems.

    -Case studies:
    Successful humanoid soccer systems like the Standard Platform League team
    B-Humanand the Humanoid League team NimbRo TeenSize will be presented.

    -Practical exercises:
    A soccer field and real humanoid soccer robots (NimbRo-OP, Darwin-OP,
    Nao) will be provided for hands-on experience. Participants are also
    encouraged to bring their own robots.

    Best-in-Class solutions for Response Robotics, with a focus on the
    challenges posed by EOD and remote handling for response applications.
    This event is a collaboration between the Curtin University of
    Technology Department of Computing and the Western Australia Police Bomb
    Response Unit. It is run in conjunction with the Bomb Response
    Technology Seminar, an event for Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD)
    responders and equipment manufacturers from around Australia, the
    region, and the world.

    This intensive five-day educational and development summer school is the
    successor to the IEEE-RAS Safety, Security and Rescue Robotics Summer
    School, held in September 2012 in Alanya, Turkey, and is an outreach
    activity of the DHS-NIST-ASTM International Standard Test Methods for
    Response Robots program. It has been established by members of the SSRR
    research community, including members of the Organising Committee of the
    International RoboCupRescue Robot League, to better address the rapidly
    growing need for effective robotic solutions in emergency response
    scenarios.

    This event is open to all researchers interested in a broad
    understanding of the SSRR field, coupled with in-depth knowledge of
    specific topics of great current relevance. We welcome participants from
    both within and outside the RoboCupRescue Robot League community, as
    well as participants from Australia and abroad. In particular, we
    encourage participants to bring their prototypical implementations of
    solutions to challenges within this domain. There will be opportunities
    to demonstrate these solutions both to other participants as well as to
    responders, and to evaluate and compare these solutions to those
    currently in deployment within the framework of the DHS-NIST-ASTM
    International Standard Test Methods for Response Robots.

    This is an advanced call for participation and provides a summary of
    this event. Further details will be made available in the near future.
    Please visit the website at http://www.responserobotics.org/ and send
    email to info@responserobotics.org if you have any further questions or
    if you would like to be added to the low volume Response Robotics Summer
    School announcements mailing list.

    In addition to academic researchers, responders and students, we also
    welcome representatives of industry and government, including
    manufacturers, research companies and other organisations that wish to
    participate within the framework of the academic and responder programs
    and/or who wish to share and demonstrate their capabilities during the
    exercises and take advantage of the DHS-NIST-ASTM International Standard
    Test Methods for Response Robots. Please contact us at
    info@responserobotics.org to discuss possible arrangements.

    The V-Charge Summer School: Perception and Planning for Autonomous Driving


    # Invitation

    On behalf of [the Autonomous Systems Lab](http://www.asl.ethz.ch/) and
    the members of [the V-Charge project](http://www.v-charge.eu/), I have
    the pleasure to cordially invite you to the following robotics summer
    school which will be conducted this July at the Swiss Federal Institute
    of Technology Zurich (ETH Zurich):

    **July 7th -- July 10th, 2014:**

    **The V-Charge Summer School: Perception and Planning for Autonomous
    Driving**

    Research into fully automated driving is maturing rapidly with all major
    vehicle manufacturers targeting the rollout of some form of vehicle
    automation in the years ahead. This ambitious goal will see complicated
    robotic systems deployed widely. However, there is still a gap between
    the commercial systems now available?such as automated cruise control
    or parking assistance?and the functionality and robustness needed for
    truly automated driving. Providing this functionality using only a suite
    of sensors that is affordable for consumers is a great challenge that
    must be solved before fully automated vehicles make it into the hands of
    average consumers.

    The V-Charge project will host a summer school on fully automated
    driving. We want to prepare a new generation of engineers for these
    challenges, expose them to the current state of the art, and highlight
    fascinating areas of future research. The summer school will give a
    compact introduction to the field of fully automated driving, offer
    technical sessions that will provide hands-on experience with
    state-of-the-art techniques, and present invited talks to frame the open
    research questions in the field.

    The school is designed for graduate students of all levels. However, a
    solid background in engineering will enable you to profit most from the
    lectures and exercises. In the courses, we seek to take your existing
    engineering skills and extend them to the most important fundamentals in
    this field. We will show you the current state of the art in each area
    and expose you to inspiring researchers from all over the world. To this
    end, the summer school will feature four full days of tutorials,
    lectures, hands-on exercises, and case studies presented by
    internationally recognized experts in the field.

    Detailed information is given below in this email or accessible at

    Summer School on Autonomous Learning
    September 1-4, 2014
    Max-Planck-Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences Leipzig
    supported by the DFG Priority Programme 1527

    Autonomous Learning research aims at understanding how autonomous
    systems can efficiently learn from the interaction with the environment,
    especially by having an integrated approach to decision making and
    learning, allowing systems to autonomously decide on actions,
    representations, hyperparameters and model structures for the purpose of
    efficient learning.

    In this summer school international and national experts will introduce
    to the core concepts and related theory for autonomous learning in
    real-world environments. We hope to foster the enthusiasm of young
    researchers for this exciting research area, giving them the opportunity
    to meet leading experts in the field and similarly interested students.
    The tutorials are structured around three themes:

    1. learning representations,
    2. acting to learn (exploration), and
    3. learning to act in real-world environments (robotics).

    This course is free of charge, but participants have to cover their own
    travel, room and board. Registration is possible with the application
    form on this website until *May 31*. More information at the Priority
    Programme website and at MPI MiS Leipzig:
