About

PhD student in the Trondheim Sleep and Chronobiology Research Group (SACR) at NTNU, Department of Mental Health. I am interested in the application of (explainable) artificial intelligence in medicine, specifically mental disorders. As part of the AI-MENT project, I am working on sleep/wake prediction and automatic human behavioral pattern recognition, specifically the early prediction of aggressive behavior, in psychiatric patients from radar data. To this end, I employ different machine and deep learning techniques, among them supervised classification, anomaly detection, and self-supervised learning.
