Establishing a quantum communication link over long distances is one of the major current challenges of quantum information technologies. For that purpose, encoding quantum information in photons (optical qubits) has the great advantage

Our proposal focuses on the ease of use and programmability of Java for distributed heterogeneous computing in order to make it exploitable by the huge user base of mainstream computing. Based on the previous work (PCJ library http://pcj

The main objective of the project is to develop a system that will provide proactive assistance with dressing to disabled users or users such as high-risk health-care workers, whose physical contact with the garments must be limited during

The IoT will contain a huge number of devices and objects that have very low or nonexistent processing and communication resources, coupled to a small number of high-power devices. The weakest devices, which are most ubiquitous, will not be

Language is an ability that develops in young children through joint interaction with their caretakers and their physical environment. At this level, human language understanding could be referred as interpreting and expressing semantic

Video is increasingly gaining importance as medium to capture and disseminate information. This is not only the case for personal use but also –and most importantly– for professional and educational applications. With the enormous growth of

Humans excel when dealing with everyday objects and manipulation tasks, learning new skills, and adapting to different or complex environments. This is a basic skill for our survival as well as a key feature in our world of artefacts and

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved outstanding performance and broad implementation in computer vision tasks such as classification, denoising, segmentation and image synthesis. However, DNN-based models and algorithms have seen

Manipulating everyday objects without detailed prior models is still beyond the capabilities of existing robots. This is due to many challenges posed by diverse types of objects: Manipulation requires understanding and accurate model of

A right to obtain an explanation of the decision reached by a machine learning (ML) model is now an EU regulation. Different stakeholders (e.g. patients, clinicians, developers, auditors, etc.) may have different background knowledge
