Secondment of CNR to UFC

Secondment of CNR to UFC

News, Secondments
During the month of April the CNR secondee Francesco Lettich visited our partner Jose de Macedo at the Federal University of Ceará in Brazil for executing a one month secondment. The research work of Francesco focussed on WP4 and specifically on external sensor trajectories (ESTs), i.e. sparse trajectories collected through the observations of a sensor network deployed within some urban area. One particular issue is the need to enrich ESTs with further features, as this has the potential to substantially improve the accuracy of predictive techniques. In this context the CNR staff can offer its expertise in the semantic enrichment domain, with the integration of existing techniques or the introduction of novel ones.

Secondment of Prof. Kofidis (UPRC) at Dalhousie University

News, Secondments
Prof. Kofidis from University of Piraeus (Greece) executed his secondment to Dalhousie University in Canada during the month of February 2020. The research topic of prof. Kofidis is the application of multi-way arrays (aka tensors) and their (coupled) decomposition to holistic trajectories. These models have been recently shown to outperform more conventional models and methods, and result in highly effective tools for applications such as recommendation and prediction.
