Publication: Calibration of Continual Learning Models
30 June 2024
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Pisa provide the first empirical study of the behaviour of calibration approaches in Continual Learning (CL) showing that CL strategies do not inherently learn calibrated models.
Publication: An Empirical Investigation on Variational Autoencoder-Based Dynamic Modeling of Deformable Objects from RGB Data
27 June 2024
In this work, EMERGE partners from the Delft University of Technology explore the use of deep learning techniques to solve dynamics of continuously deformable objects and other mechanical systems analytically from first principles.
Publication: Deep Echo State Networks for Modelling of Industrial Systems
22 June 2024
In this study, EMERGE partners from the University of Pisa and collaborators work with Deep Echo State Networks (Deep ESNs) for estimating the levels of two sequentially connected tanks in an industrial plant with four water tanks.

Publication: Random Oscillators Network for Time Series Processing
31 May 2024
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Pisa introduce the Random Oscillators Network (RON), a physically-inspired recurrent model derived from a network of heterogeneous oscillators.
Publication: Edge of Stability Echo State Network
29 May 2024
In this work, EMERGE partners from the University of Pisa introduce a new ESN architecture called the Edge of Stability ESN to bring together the fading memory property and the ability to retain as much memory as possible.
Publication: Hedonic valence at the core of consciousness: A review of “A philosophy for the science of animal consciousness” by Walter Veit
23 May 2024
In this work, EMERGE partners from the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, discuss the main original contributions of Walter Veit’s “A Philosophy for the Science of Animal Consciousness”.
Publication: Piecewise Affine Curvature model: a Reduced-Order Model for Soft Robot-Environment Interaction Beyond PCC
15 May 2024
In this work, EMERGE partners from Delft University of Technology and collaborators performed an analysis of the trade-off between computational treatability and modelling accuracy in the control of soft robots.
