Lund University’s fastest growing online course can have up to a thousand new participants every week. ‘AI, business and the future of work’ is a success story – but behind it lies many hours of hard work. “In total, we have probably spent 8,000 hours preparing and producing the course,” says Anamaria Dutceac Segesten, currently senior lecturer in European Studies and deputy dean of the Joint Facu

In patients with symptoms such as irregular heartbeats, dizziness, or fainting, or in individuals that physicians suspect may have atrial fibrillation, many days of ECGs may be required for diagnosis – “long-term ECG recordings”. These recordings must then undergo a time-consuming and human resource-intensive review to identify heart rhythm abnormalities. In a large international study, researcher

New research results now published from Lund University’s MASAI trial are even better than the initial findings from last year: AI-supported breast screening detected 29 per cent more cases of cancer compared with traditional screening. More invasive cancers were also clearly detected at an early stage using AI. Now the final part of the research study will focus on breast cancer missed by screeni

To most effectively deliver aid to alleviate poverty, you have to know where the people most in need are. In many countries, this is often done with household surveys. But these are usually infrequent and cover limited locations.Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have created a step change in how to measure poverty and other human development indicators. Our team has used a type of AI

Every year, the Swedish Riksdag organises a research day. This year the theme was “artificial intelligence”. The aim is to give Members of Parliament the opportunity to gain new knowledge and to highlight the value of science for politics, democracy, and parliamentary decision-making. This year, Johan Axhamn, senior lecturer in Business Law here at LUSEM, was the sole representative from Lund Univ

Developments in quantum technology and artificial intelligence, AI, are predicted to transform research, as well as business and society as a whole. The Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation is awarding a total of SEK 1.6 billion over ten years to these promising fields, in two separate research projects involving several Swedish higher education institutions. Together with other funding, the budge

Christian Balkenius började vid Lunds universitet 1988. Då var AI-forskningen inriktad på att göra datorsimuleringar över emotionella processer. – Vi hade inga riktiga robotar som vi gjorde försök med, utan de kom först en bit in på 90-talet. Då handlade det mycket om navigering, att få roboten att ta sig från ett ställe till ett annat. Nu sker fler olika försök med robotar med målet att de ska ut

"Det är viktigt att koppla ihop AI med demokrati eftersom det handlar om vilket samhälle vi vill ha, vilka möjligheter vi har att påverka och hur vi fattar våra beslut", säger statsvetaren Maria Hedlund. Som forskare har hon tittat särskilt på beslutsprocesser och AI. – AI är extra genomgripande för att den finns överallt och på grund av dess förmåga att se mönster i stora datamängder. Om system o

Det uppkopplade hemmet är redan här. Men hur mycket avkall på integriteten är vi beredda att göra för högre komfort? Den och andra frågor ställer sig etnologen Robert Willim i ett nytt forskningsprojekt som rör AI i vår hemmiljö. – Jag är nyfiken på att förstå den digitala tekniken och hur den gradvis förändrar och präglar vårt vardagsliv, säger Robert Willim, som nu startat det fyraåriga forsknin

Professor Jacek Malec kom till institutionen för datavetenskap 1999. Då hade AI-forskningen där pågått under flera år tillsammans med kognitionsforskarna. – I vår forskning använde vi robotar med sensorer som kunde känna av omgivningen, navigera sig fram och ”prata” med varandra, säger Jacek Malec. Under en period under 90-talet upplevde AI-forskningen en svacka som till stor del berodde på brist
