UiT Machine Learning Group

Pushing the frontier

Powered by the cool Arctic air, and located at 70° north, the core strength of the Machine Learning Group at UiT The Arctic University of Norway is in basic research for advancing statistical machine learning & AI methodology to face the societal and industrial data-driven challenges of the future.

We publish in CVPR, AAAI, ECCV, IEEE TPAMI, IEEE TNNLS, MICCAI, Medical Image Analysis, to name a few.


We head SFI Visual Intelligence, a Centre for Research-based Innovation funded by the Research Council of Norway and consortium partners.

The UiT Machine Learning Group is hosting the annual Northern Lights Deep Learning Workshop. Please see: nldl.org
