Research Training Group
Cooperative, Adaptive and Responsive Monitoring in Mixed Mode Environments

To discuss and prepare the work distribution and responsibilities for the final report.

We will start the meeting with a short talk of Samam Khodaverdian
on "Synchronization of heterogeneous multi-agent systems through partial homogenization" (presentation of research plan
as last part of intermediate evaluation).

The PhD defense will take place on March 22th at 16:00 in room A102

Title: Secure Multi-Purpose Wireless Sensor Networks

The PhD defense Stefan Kohlbrecher will take place on Dezember 2th at 9:00 in A102.

Title: A Holistic Approach for Highly Versatile Supervised Autonomous Urban Search and Rescue Robots

Prof. Han and Prof. Chen are with the National Taiwan University of Science and Technology and the National Chiao Tung University Taiwan will first give an overview on their research and then detail some selected recent research results in the areas of coding theory as well as power allocation.

The PhD defense will take place on August 6th at 13:30 in A102.

Title: A systematic approach to the design of embodiment with application to bio-inspired compliant legged robots

Mohammadreza Mahmudimanesh has successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis on July 7th 2015. His dissertation topic is about "Efficient Spatio-Temporal Sampling in Wireless Sensor Networks based on Compressive Sampling".

Title:   Automated Hierarchical, Forward-Chaining Temporal Planner for Planetary Robots Exploring Unknown Environments

The talk will cover his work on P2P Systems,  Title "Darknets"

Perpetual Operation Based on Opportunistic Communication in Self-Sustained, Energy-Harvesting Sensor Networks

Our next GK seminar is taking place on Monday, January 26th, at 12:30 in A102. 

This talk might be particularly interesting for those of you, who work in the area of WSN, wireless communications, or signal processing.

The talk takes place in S4/14 (Mornewegstr. 32, close to railway station), Room 5.3.01 (5th floor).

Perspectives on Low-Power Wireless

In this seminar, two GK students are presenting their work.

First we will have the presentation talk of Saman Khodaverdian with the title "On the Synchronization of Linear Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Systems".

Afterwards Tsvetoslava Vateva-Gurova will talk on her mid-term progress and thesis plan evaluation.

Stephan Richter will present his work on Monocular Depth Estimation for 3D Scene Understanding.
