Reading Groups

The Reading Group is a seminar for DERI researchers and other people interested in learning about seminal works in areas relevant to our research. In this weekly held event, scientific papers or textbooks chosen by the speaker are being presented and discussed. The Reading group is meant as a forum where we particularly focus on research done outside of DERI. Topics of the presented articles can vary greatly, and serve the purpose to deepen knowledge on relevant research going on in the fields DERI is involved in. Also, the seminar gives the presenters the chance to present excellent research results in a confined environment to practice their presentation skills and get feedback from a broader audience. Each of the presentations is followed by a discussion about impact and relevance of the presented work on our own research. Reading groups are normally held on Wednesday morning at 11:00 in the DERI Conference Room, unless otherwise specified.
