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 researchers 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 are workshops, 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.
Furthermore, the guest speakers (both from academia and industry) are invited to present new trends in various fields of Artificial Intelligence.
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 students at all levels, from undergraduates to doctoral candidates. The event is not limited to 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 venue are limited, students will be selected based on their theoretical background and readiness to understand recent research papers.
