The daily TV show Hrvatska uživo (Croatia live) aired a feature about a new project in the making in which ACROSS' Nao robots play a central role. The proposed project is based on interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers from the Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation Sciences and FER's LARICS laboratory and aims to facilitate the diagnosing and treatment of Autism spectrum disorders by using robots as assistants. The feature can be viewed through the Croatian television VOD channel (airdate 27.11.2013, feature starts at 00:33:28).
As part of the RADDAR festival, organized by the XV high school of Zagreb, middle school students from all over Croatia will be visiting ACROSS laboratories in the next months. The first group of 90 students visited ACROSS' Larics lab today. The students were greeted by a pair of Nao robots, who showed off their dancing moves and perception skills. The students were also challenged to a series of tic-tac-toe duels. The final score was in favor of humans, but the robots are catching up fast!
More information about RADDAR events is available at www.mioc.hr.

Lyapunov theory in analysis of partial differential equations
Speaker
Dr. sc. Mario Bukal
Date

The colloquia presented the state of the art analysis of nonlinear evolution equations which employs the so-called entropy production inequalities. They reflect the dissipation or stability property of certain functionals (entropies) along the sought solutions, and give rise to desired a priori estimates. These techniques resemble the Lyapunov stability theory for dynamical systems and the analogy between these two subjects was outlined.
