Requirements & Information

• Organizers: Prof. Dr. Maren Bennewitz (Juniorprof.), Prof Dr. Wolfram Burgard, Dipl. Inf. Armin Hornung , Dipl. Inf. Kai Wurm
• The seminar will be held as a "Blockseminar" on July 8/9, location: 078 00 014 (wed) / 079 00 019 (thu). The exact schedule will be announced by the end of June.
• You have to prepare a talk of 30 minutes and to write a summary. Both can be done in English or German.
• The summaries should be 7 pages long at maximum (latex, a4wide, 11pt). Significantly longer summaries will not be accepted!
• A first version of the slides for the presentation must be sent to the superviser on June 28 at the latest.
• The final version of the summary must be submitted by July 5. To have a chance to revise the summary once according to the comments of your supervisor, you should therefore have a first version finished at July 1 which is sent to the supervisor.
