"LOGIC, DESIGN, AND LEARNING" SEMINAR.

Seminars of the Intelligent Robotics Laboratory.


These seminars are related to all areas related to logic, design and learning. In particular we discuss solving combinatorial problems, logic representations and formalisms, learning and pattern recognition algorithms, non-classical logics, logic synthesis, data mining and robotics. Our group specializes also in logic design of advanced robotics controllers and test of robots.
