Join NORA and Kjersti Engan for free webinar: Safer Births through Signal Processing and Artificial Intelligence

Worldwide more than 2 million newborns die during birth or the first day of life every year. In addition a number of children live with long term damage due to birth asphyxia. Biomedical data analysis lab, BMDLab, at University of Stavanger (UiS) is working in a cross-disiplinary network with the overall goal of safer births and increased newborn survival. In this presentation Professor Kjersti Engan (UiS) will present past and ongoing research using signal processing, automated analysis and artificial intelligence on sensor signals and video data collected from labour to resuscitation at partner hospitals in Tanzania and Nepal.

About Kjersti Engan

Kjersti Engan is a full professor at the dept. of  electrical engineering and computer science at the University of Stavanger (UiS), Norway.  She received the BE degree in electrical engineering from Bergen University College in 1994, the M.Sc. in information technology in 1996 at UiS and Ph.D degrees in 2000 from UiS/NTNU in collaboration.  She is the leader of the Biomedical data analysis lab, BMDLab, at UiS (uis.no/en/bmdlab).   

Her research interests are in signal and image processing and machine learning with emphasis on medical applications and in dictionary learning for sparse signal and image representation. She has a special interest in newborn survival, contributing with analysis and classification on fetal heart rate signals, ECG and ventilation signals and on video analysis for activity detection during resuscitation.

She is a senior member of IEEE, and a board member of NOBIM (Norwegian Image and Pattern Recognition Society). She has served as Associate editor and Senior Area editor for IEEE Signal Processing Letters. She is currently a member of IEEE Image, Video, and Multidimensional Signal Processing Technical Committee (IVMSP), and an associate editor for SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences (SIIMS).
