About
The Department of Cybernetics is aimed at high-quality research in
artificial intelligence, machine perception, robotics, and biomedical
engineering with the focus to multi-agent systems, machine learning, data
mining, pattern recognition, knowledge-based systems, medical data
processing and collaborative robotics. The research is carried out in two
co-operating centres - The Gerstner
Laboratory for Intelligent Decision
Making and Control and The Centre of Machine Perception. The Department
offers a wide range of undergraduate and postrgraduate courses and is
responsible for the Ph.D. branch of study "AI and Biocybernetics" with more
than 50 Ph.D. students enrolled.

- Lukas Neumann has received a prestigious Google PhD Fellowship as the only person in Central & Eastern Europe. According to Google, "the Google Fellowship Programs recognize outstanding graduate students doing exceptional work in computer science, related disciplines, or promising research areas". The fellowships are typically awarded to students from universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, ETH, and TUM in Europe or MIT, Stanford, and Caltech in the USA. Congratulations!
- The team "Umeli a inteligentni" consisting of Petr Kremen, Marek Smid and Radim Tylecek took part in the Cycle to work campaign.During the month of May they made together 88 cycle trips to work and back (with the overall length of 1280 km). The team was 94th out of 484 teams in Prague and 1st out of 7 CTU teams. Congratulations!
