22/07/2025With sorrow, we announce that on July 12, our dear colleague Ing. Karel Sladký, CSc., from the Department of Econometrics, passed away at the age of 84. He worked at the Institute of Information Theory and Automation (ÚTIA) for more than half a century and made a significant contribution to its history. He will be remembered by all of us as an exceptionally meticulous and hardworking editor of the institute's international journal Kybernetika, which he significantly elevated through his dedicated efforts. He held this position for nearly 30 years. In the scientific part of his work, he focused mainly on stochastic dynamic programming and Markov decision processes. Toward the end of his career, he was appointed Emeritus Researcher of ÚTIA in recognition of his contributions to the development of the institute. In Karel Sladký, we have lost a devoted and kind colleague who left an indelible mark on the institute.

17/03/2025A series of Workshops on Uncertainty Processing (WUPES) has been held in the Czech Republic every third year since 1988. Proceedings from several previous workshops can be found on their websites (WUPES'22, WUPES'18, WUPES'15, WUPES'12, WUPES'09, and WUPES'06). Like the previous meetings, the forthcoming workshop will foster creative intellectual activities and exchange ideas in an informal atmosphere. Therefore, we aim at a limited number of participants (~40). We invite submissions of papers on topics such as Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence, Bayesian Networks, Conditional Independence, Stochastic Analysis, Algebraic Statistics, Information-Theoretical Inequalities, Combinatorial Methods for Secret Sharing, Fuzzy Analysis, Machine Learning, Decision Theory, Management Science, and related fields.
