NextGen-FI) project, developing advanced AI and remote sensing methods for forest monitoring and illegal logging detection. Working at the intersection of computer vision, deep learning, geospatial analysis and remote sensing, the postholder will collaborate closely with academic and stakeholder partners. The project addresses automated tree species mapping … species may not be represented in initial training data. Research will focus on open-set recognition, foundation models, multimodal approaches, and uncertainty-aware, incremental learning to build adaptable AI systems that recognise known species while handling unseen classes. The role spans the entire research pipeline - from processing spatio-spectral ...
