The Spring School of Artificial Intelligence is a unique annual event organised by the Department of Theoretical Computer Science and Mathematical Logic at Charles University. Set in the beautiful and relaxed atmosphere of the Krkonoše Mountains, the event combines academic exploration with the exploration of the natural beauties around.
Our mission is to connect young scientists from various areas of Artificial Intelligence and encourage their collaboration. We aim to inspire master’s students by showcasing opportunities for thesis work and motivating them to consider future doctoral studies.
At the same time, we try to help participants improve their presentation skills in a supportive and constructive environment.
Finally, we want to create a space for building new relationships and strengthening ties within the wider scientific community.
The program is designed to bring together students from various areas of AI.
The main part is workshop, where each student presents their research or selected research paper. Thanks to those presentations, students can furthermore discuss their work, exchange ideas and gain new insights.
In addition, the guest speakers (both from academia and industry) are invited to present new trends in various fields of Artificial Intelligence. Among others, we are looking forward to the talk of Prof. Stefan Edelkamp.
But it’s not all about sitting inside. Another part of the program takes place outdoors. All participants can enjoy hiking trips through the stunning Krkonoše landscape, relax in the sauna, and take part in other outdoor activities.
This event is open to all students and researchers, not just those from the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics. We warmly welcome participants from all academic institutions in Prague and beyond. Whether you're deep into your AI research or just beginning your journey, come join us for a week of learning, sharing, and relaxing in the mountains!
Note that it is important to us to maintain the quality of this event. Since our budget and the capacity of the cottage are limited, students will be selected based on their theoretical background and readiness to understand recent research papers.
Are you excited to be part of the Spring School of AI? We'd love to hear from you!
Just send us a brief email to springai (at) ktiml.mff.cuni.cz and tell us a bit about your background, research interests, and how you found out about the event. Also, let us know about the topic of your thesis or research paper, which you would like to present at the workshops.
Looking for a paper to present? Check our recommendations! If you have multiple papers or you are just not sure what to present, please send us your suggestions, and we can help you select a suitable topic and help with the structure of the presentation.
Feel free to drop us a message if you have any questions or need more details. And remember - your passion and curiosity are what matter the most!
