Scene for AI

Lectures and events with a focus on AI

LiU SAI – Scene for AI – is an arena in which we arrange lectures and events with a focus on AI, in the partnership with AI Sweden.

The aim is to promote the AI-related work being done both at Linköping University and in regional industry. The idea with Scene for AI is to generate interest and be a natural gathering place for everybody who is interested in AI, thereby stimulating collaborations both within the university, local businesses and with other regional national and international actors interested in AI.

This page will be updated continually with new events. All events will be open for academia, industry and the general public. However, the specific target groups, technical depth and language will vary from event to event.

Most of the events will be recorded and available to watch here afterwards.

Are you interested in participating, or curious about a subject that we haven't touched upon yet? Feel free to get in touch.

Scene for AI #9

LiU SAI - Scene for AI #9

Artificial intelligence in medicine – Clinical implementation

Currently (fall 2022), there are over a hundred CE-marked AI-based medical technology products in radiology. However, clinical implementation of AI is not trivial and requires several competences and local validation. Lyssna på Håkan Gustafsson, Biträdande föreståndare vid Centrum för medicinsk bildvetenskap och visualisering (CMIV).

From LiU SAI #9 at Wrannesalen, CMIV, Campus US, Linköping University, Linköping, 8/12 2022.

M4-health and digital twins: a foundation for general AI in healthcare

For the last 20 years, Cedersund has developed mechanistic mathematical models for all of the main organs in the human body: heart, liver, fat, brain, etc. Lately, these models have combined into an interconnected model for the model as a whole. This interconnected model can be made specifically for each individual, and is then called a digital twin. Lyssna på Gunnar Cedersund, Docent vid Institutionen för medicinsk teknik (IMT).

From LiU SAI #9 at Wrannesalen, CMIV, Campus US, Linköping University, Linköping, 8/12 2022.

LiU SAI - Scene for AI #9

Deep learning for functional analysis of diseases

Within molecular biology, analyzing different omics as the size of available public data sets has increased orders of magnitudes, but a fundamental key aspect is then to identify a biologically motivated embedding. For this purpose, functional data using protein networks is a suitable candidate. Lyssna på Mika Gustafsson, Professor vid Institutionen för Fysik, kemi och biologi (IFM).

Closing remarks

To solve the most important problems and get results that can be accepted in the healthcare system, it is necessary that medical clinical requirements form the basis of the research. The key to patient benefit from AI research is interdisciplinary work. Lyssna på Anders Persson, Föreståndare vid Centrum för medicinsk bildvetenskap och visualisering (CMIV).
