Our Research Areas

Species Detection

ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND CONSERVATION


At DSAIL, we use advanced data acquisition and analysis methods alongside traditional conservation techniques to monitor ecosystems and support conservation decisions.

Tree Inventory

HEALTH

Access to adequate healthcare is essential, and AI offers potential to improve care in underserved areas. We are currently working on automated screening for Rheumatic Heart Disease and using computer vision to monitor Orthopedic patients collaborating closely with medical professionals.

Gender Justice

AGRICULTURE

Agriculture is a key income and food security source for many African households, climate change has recently disupted yields due to unpredictable weather. To address this, we are working on crop yield prediction and weather forecasting projects, as well as intiatives that utilize IoT.

AI Healthcare

NOVEL MACHINE LEARNING METHODS

We are developing advanced machine learning methods to address challenges in environmental conservation, health and agriculture focusing on probabilistic models like Gaussian processes and Graph Neural Networks
