Rather than prescribing specific technical solutions, it formulates outcome-oriented safety requirements. This approach ensures adaptability to future technological evolution while maintaining consistent safety objectives. From a technical perspective, the regulation defines an Automated Driving System as an integrated combination of vehicle hardware and software capable of performing the entire Dynamic Driving Task (DDT) on a sustained basis . The DDT includes environmental perception, decision-making, manoeuvre planning, and vehicle motion control. Because these systems replace core human driving functions, manufacturers must demonstrate that the safety performance of their ADS is at least equivalent to that of a competent and careful human driver.[2] To verify compliance, the regulation introduces a multi-pillar validation methodology. Regulators explicitly acknowledge that no single testing method can sufficiently demonstrate safety. Therefore, manufacturers must rely on a combination of simulation-based testing, closed-track trials, real-world driving tests, and regulatory audits . This integrated assessment framework allows evaluation across diverse operational conditions and complex traffic scenarios. A central element of the framework is the requirement to compile a structured Safety Case. Manufacturers must provide clearly formulated safety claims, supported by technical arguments and documented evidence, demonstrating that the ADS operates without unreasonable risk and complies with regulatory requirements . The Safety Case is subject to comprehensive regulatory assessment and functions as a formal mechanism of accountability. Complementing this obligation is the mandatory implementation of a Safety Management System (SMS). The SMS integrates organizational structures, human competencies, and technical processes to manage safety throughout the entire lifecycle of the system from development and validation to deployment and post-market operation . The regulation includes audit and certification mechanisms to verify compliance with SMS requirements.[3] Safety oversight continues even after vehicles enter the market. The regulation establishes In-Service Monitoring and Reporting (ISMR) mechanisms, requiring continuous data collection, occurrence reporting, and performance evaluation . In addition, vehicles must be equipped with a Data Storage System for Automated Driving (DSSAD) capable of recording safety-relevant ADS performance data . These mechanisms create a feedback loop enabling authorities to identify systemic risks and implement corrective measures when necessary.[4] The draft builds upon earlier international instruments, including the 2022 Framework Document on Automated Vehicles and the 2024 Guidelines and recommendations for ADS requirements, assessments and test methods . Several major jurisdictions have already engaged with the proposal: the United States launched a Request for Comment through its national authorities, China indicated its intention to align its national standards with the global regulation, and Japan together with several European countries welcomed the initiative. At a systemic level, the regulation aims not only to enable technological deployment but also to clarify responsibility attribution through structured documentation and data logging, prevent fragmented legal regimes, enhance international cooperation, and strengthen public trust in automated mobility . In doing so, it represents one of the most comprehensive attempts to regulate safety-critical artificial intelligence technologies within a globally harmonized legal framework. Key Summary
  • A draft United Nations Global Technical Regulation on Automated Driving Systems (ADS) was finalized after a decade of technological development and regulatory preparation, and adopted by GRVA in January 2026 for submission to WP.29.
  • The regulation aims to establish the first harmonized global framework enabling fully autonomous vehicles to operate on public roads without driver supervision.
  • It follows a performance-based and technology-neutral approach, requiring safety outcomes comparable to those of a competent and careful human driver.
  • Safety compliance is ensured through a multi-pillar validation framework (simulation, track testing, real-world tests, and audits) and a structured Safety Case supported by evidence.
  • Manufacturers must implement a certified Safety Management System (SMS) covering the entire lifecycle of the system.
  • Ongoing oversight is secured through in-service monitoring, reporting obligations, and mandatory data recording (DSSAD), promoting accountability and public trust.

Generácia 50+ predstavuje mimoriadne cenný zdroj vedomostí, skúseností a profesionálnych kontaktov. Výsledky nášho prieskumu ukazujú, že mnohí skúsení odborníci majú silnú vnútornú motiváciu začať podnikať a deliť sa o svoje know-how. Pri cielenej podpore a vzdelávaní môžu významne prispieť k inováciám a posilňovaniu ekonomickej stability v Európe,“ uviedol Michal Greguš, koordinátor projektu CHANCE na FM UK. Z tohto dôvodu je hlavným cieľom projektu vytvorenie masívneho otvoreného online kurzu (Massive Open Online Course, MOOC) prispôsobeného potrebám tzv. „neskorých podnikateľov“. Kurz sa zameria na praktické oblasti podnikania, ako sú tvorba podnikateľských plánov, finančné riadenie, marketing a využívanie digitálnych nástrojov. Následne bude pilotne odskúšaný s minimálne 350 účastníkmi a účastníčkami. Obsah kurzu vychádza priamo z preferencií respondentov, ktorí uprednostňujú videoformáty, online vzdelávanie, interaktívne prvky, skupinové diskusie a individuálne mentorstvo. Cieľom je vytvoriť škálovateľný model podnikateľského vzdelávania na európskej úrovni, špecificky prispôsobený populácii 50+. Projekt CHANCE Erasmus+, financovaný z prostriedkov Európskej únie v rámci programu Erasmus+, sa sústreďuje na rozvoj zručností ľudí vo veku 50+, ktorí chcú začať podnikať alebo sa vydať novým kariérnym smerom.

Abstrakt:
Psychedelics are a class of psychoactive substances known to induce alterations in perception, mood, and cognitive processes. Recent studies have reported promising therapeutic outcomes for several psychiatric conditions, including anxiety, treatment-resistant depression (TRD), and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, the impact of psychedelics on cognitive functions remains insufficiently explored. Computational modeling provides a valuable approach for elucidating the mechanisms underlying psychedelic effects. This project aims to integrate methodologies from computer science (spiking neural networks, entropy measures), physics (criticality theory), mathematics (graph theory), statistics (Bayesian framework), and neuroscience to model, analyze, and investigate the complex dynamics of brain activity under the influence of psychedelics. The research project will proceed as follows: (1) select a specific cognitive function and replicate its typical operation in a computational model, such as human vision; (2) manipulate the model, informed by existing literature, to reproduce psychedelic effects, such as visual hallucinations; (3) hypothesize emergent properties within the system, for example, an increase in entropy; (4) quantify, analyze, and validate findings using appropriate measures and metrics grounded in established literature, such as entropy measures; (5) compare and refine the models based on the results. If possible, the final step will involve validating the model against externally obtained experimental data or open-source datasets. We are currently focusing on reproducing psychedelic effects in the domain of human vision, specifically visual hallucinations, by manipulating precision in a hierarchical predictive coding model.

Abstrakt:
In this presentation, we explore a detector's response to vacuum fluctuations inside a hollow spherical shell in spatial superposition. To properly describe this system, we employ the formalism of Quantum Reference Frames (QRF), which allows us to transition to a perspective where the detector inherits the quantum delocalization. By performing this change of frame, we can analyze the interaction within a classical gravitational background while maintaining the quantum nature of the source. Finally, we investigate what information the detector’s response provides about the shell's quantum state, identifying which features of the superposition are effectively captured by the detector. ]]> [FMFI] Prednášky a semináre [FMFI] Kalendár Peter.Matak@fmph.uniba.sk Tue, 05 May 2026 13:40:00 +0200
