Hedvig Kjellström
I am a Guest Professor at the Department of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry (AFB), SLU. My main activity is conducted at the Division of Robotics, Perception and Learning, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, and my goal with the Guest Professorship is to create new research collaborations between SLU and KTH within animal applications of AI.

Research

The research at SLU is aimed towards the application of AI methods to recognize, measure and interpret animal motion and behavior in video. The current projects, in collaboration with Elin Hernlund and Pia Haubro Andersen, are mainly targeted towards horse, but my goal during the two-year Guest Professorship is to widen the scope to more species, and also to find new animal AI applications.
