Fredrik Gustafsson

Professor

My research interests are in stochastic signal processing, adaptive filtering and change detection, with applications to communication, vehicular, airborne, audio and wildlife applications.

Fredrik Gustafsson is professor in Sensor Informatics at Department of Electrical Engineering, Linköping University, since 2005.

He received the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering 1988 and the Ph.D. degree in Automatic Control, 1992, both from Linköping University. During 1992-1999 he held various positions in automatic control, and 1999-2005 he was professor in Communication Systems.

Smart cameras for conservation biology

Machine learning and smart cameras will be used to make it easier to monitor the large animals in African nature reserves. The technology has been developed by scientists and students at Linköping University.

Technology to stop poaching

The black market in rhinoceros horn is worth billions of dollars, and poaching is driving the species towards extinction. However, the drive against poaching is now to be given new impetus with the aid of the most recent technology.

Fredrik Gustafsson and Toomas Timpka looks into the camera.

Researchers critical to flawed Covid-19-models

Reports from Imperial College regarding the spread and the effects of Covid-19 had considerable policy impacts in several European countries. But the models that informed the reports have considerable flaws, according to LiU-researchers.

About the division

Automatic Control (RT)

The activities include problems in sensor fusion, system identification, robotics/autonomous systems, optimization for control applications and complex networks. They aim at a good balance between theoretical developments and industrial applications.

About the department

Department of Electrical Engineering (ISY)

The department is central to the engineering education at the Institute of Technology, one of four faculties at Linköping University, and this regards both basic and applied knowledge.
