The podcast


Just for curiosity, I am sharing a podcast generated by notebooklm based on these papers. I *have not* listen to the entire podcast yet. It may be (and probably is) full of imprecise or bogus sentences. Still, it is great fun.

Paper presentations


Part of the evaluation includes the presentation of a paper by each group.

A  map of the presentations can be found here: Mapa-v8.pdf
