  1. Social robots for pedagogical rehabilitation in special education for the elderly – V-RITA2022- Abstract Numerous studies have reported social robot applications for children including both typical and special education. Similar applications for the elderly are underplayed. However, children grow to adults and, ultimately, to elderly. This preliminary work, based on our expertise with social robot NAO in special education applications for children, reports an approach for…
  2. Potentials for decision support in business processes through a multi-layer network embeddings approach, 32nd EURO Conference, Espoo, Finland, 2022- Abstract In a business process, we expect multiple related entities to interact. For example, in the Order-to-Cash process, one can observe the events that are recorded with respect to the orders, to the packages, or to the items that are included in the order. Each case notion carries only a part of the aspects…
