Associate professor Kristoffer Wickstrøm teaching the Kongsbakken students.
We were happy to host a school class from Kongsbakken upper secondary school at UiT Norges arktiske universitet on March 13th.
We were happy to host a school class from Kongsbakken upper secondary school at UiT The Arctic University of Norway on March 13th.
Associate professor and PI Kristoffer Wickstrøm gave the students an introduction to the field of AI, exploring the possibilites and challenges associated with the technology.
After this introductory overview, the students got to try out different interactive practical tasks involving image filtering and detection of sea urchins using AI.
Wickstrøm also gave the students a look into the vast amount of career opportunities within AI, encouraging them to become future researchers in the field of AI and deep learning.
We hope to host many more school classes in the future. Thank you to all the students and Kristoffer for an enriching and productive session!

Professor and AI expert Robert Jenssen is attending the Japan-Norway AI Innovation Forum and Japan-Norway Research Symposium, two high-level meetings with Norwegian and Japanese government leaders, business actors and researchers.
Visual Intelligence researchers Solveig Thrun and Kristoffer Wickstrøm took their research out of the lab and to Tromsø city centre as part of Pint of Science 2026.
Subsurface Digital Manager and former Visual Intelligence board member Cathrine Tegnander will serve as the elected leader of Visual Intelligence's board.
The Call for Papers and Abstracts for the Northern Lights Deep Learning (NLDL) Conference 2027 is officially announced – with submission deadlines on August 7th and Mid-September 2026 respectively.
The field of Visual Intelligence is continuously transforming. Chief Research Scientist Arnt-Børre Salberg dives deeper into the current trends in the field of visual intelligence as of early 2026.
Generativ kunstig intelligens er imponerende, men ikke alltid så nyttig til å løse industrielle problemer (Norwegian op-ed in digi.no).
Congratulations to Marit Dagny Kristine Jenssen, who successfully defended her PhD thesis at UiT The Arctic University of Norway on April 10th
