In June we had the pleasure to welcome Professor James Llinas from the University at Buffalo (State University of New York) for a one-week visit. Prof. Llinas is one of the most renowned researchers in the field of information fusion and is the head of the Center for Multisource Information Fusion (CMIF), http://www.infofusion.buffalo.edu/.
During his stay, Prof. Llinas was able to learn about our research program and give his opinion on our research direction and advice for further progress. In addition to an interesting talk on University of Buffalo and CMIF, Prof. Llinas' schedule during the week included individual research discussions with representatives for some of our projects; a discussion workshop where interesting and urgent topics for the research community were treated; and participation in our regular research meeting. Opportunities for future collaboration and further visits were also discussed.
