Great things are not accomplished by those who yield to trends and fads and popular opinion.

 

If moderation is a fault, then indifference is a crime.

Brief Information

I am man of science at the Institute of the Computer Science, Academy of the Sciences of the Czech Republic. I was born in Prague, where I graduated from the Faculty of Chemical Engineering at the University of Chemical Technology in Prague. I received my Ph.D. degree in technical cybernetics from the Technical University of Prague, in 1983. Since then, I have devoted to scientific research and activities connected therewith. I am still working in a multi-disciplinary environment involving artificial intelligence, machine learning and brain computer interface (BCI), neural networks, biologically inspired algorithms, robotics, information retrieval, and data mining.

I authored several refereed journal / conference papers, two books and one patent. I published more than 300 scientific papers. I was actively involved in many international conferences.

During my employment at this institute, I was the principal investigator of research projects awarded by various entities, in particular the Czech Grant Agency (GACR), the Ministry of Education and the Grant Agency of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. The Academy of Sciences of both parties jointly supported bilateral Czech-Russian research projects. I was also the main investigator of Czech-French research projects jointly funded by both governments within the BARRANDE initiative.

I am an associate editor of Neural Network World Journal I am a member of international reserach groups (MIRLABS, ONEGIN) and local as well. I am the active member of International Association for Statistical Computing (IASC) section of the International Statistical Institute (ISI), and active  Member(10) of IEEE society including its interest groups  (see membership).

Research interests

My research interests include artificial intelligence, machine learning and brain computer interface (BCI), neural networks, associative memories, biologically inspired algorithms, biologically inspired models for robotics, information retrieval. data mining and neural network application in statistics.
