Visual Intelligence congratulates associate professors Elisabeth Wetzer, Ali Ramezani-Kebrya, and Kristoffer Wickstrøm, who were recently appointed as principal investigators (PIs) at the research centre.
Each innovation area and research challenge at Visual Intelligence is lead by a team of PIs. Wetzer, Ramezani-Kebrya, and Wickstrøm will serve as valuable additions to their respective PI team by leveraging on their expert knowledge within AI and deep learning.
- It is a great opportunity to collaborate with colleagues across Norway in machine learning and creating real-world impact for our research, says Ramezani-Kebrya, who recently joined the "Explainability and reliability" PI team alongside Wickstrøm. Both Ramezani-Kebrya and Wickstrøm will work alongside senior research scientist Alba Ordoñez of The Norwegian Computing Center.
- I am very much looking forward to it and hope to contribute in as many ways as I can to Visual Intelligence, adds Wickstrøm.
Wetzer will be a part of the "Context and dependencies" PI team, collaborating extensively with professor Anne Solberg (UiO) and associate professor Benjamin Ricaud (UiT).
- I am thoroughly thrilled to accept this challenge and continue innovation-oriented research building on the already existing insights gained by previous VI research in this field, says Wetzer.

I am eager to absorb knowledge from these experts and contribute to our collective understanding, says Filippo Bascetta, who is one of two new VI interns.
Listen to VI co-director Line Eikvil and research director Anders Løland (Norsk Regnesentral) talk about developments before and after the breakthrough of deep learning in the NR podcast, Sannsynligvis VIKTIG (Norwegian dialogue).
The delegation lasted from April 23rd to 27th and aimed to develop and strengthen existing and future collaborations between UiT and Indian universities and research institutions.
We congratulate Adín Ramírez Rivera (UiO), Michael Kampffmeyer (UiT) and Andrea Marinoni (UiT), who were recently promoted to professors at their respective universities.

I år samler SFI Visual Intelligence, som ledes av Forskningsgruppen for maskinlæring ved UiT, og Lie Størmer senter kreftene for å markere dagen ved Verdensteateret i Tromsø den 6. mai. Arrangementet er gratis og åpent for alle interesserte.
Heggeli's primary work tasks involve managing, maintaining and optimizing the GPU cluster at UiT Machine Learning (ML) Group in Tromsø, while serving as an important advising resource for our UiT-based VI researchers.
The company's interest in Visual Intelligence is to utilize new developments in artificial intelligence (AI) to improve and automate interpretations of data, while providing the centre with data, problem formulations, and different forms of guidance.
The presented research is part of a larger collaboration between researchers from UiT The Arctic University of Norway and the University Hospital of North Norway.
Visual Intelligence researchers from UiT Machine Learning Group and the University Hospital of North Norway (UNN) were recently featured in the "Abels Tårn" spin-off show "Den store serien om KI".
While visiting Tromsø, Fua held two talks on the topics of "Deep Uncertainty" and "Deep 3D Surface Meshes" for students and researchers at UiT The Arctic University of Norway.
The report showcases Visual Intelligence's activities, results, staff and funding throughout the past year, serving as a detailed compilation of our researchers' efforts towards further development within the centre's four main innovation areas and solving our four research chall
