Research centres
The department of Computer Science participates in the following research centres.
WASP - Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program
Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) is Sweden’s largest individual research programme ever, a major national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education and faculty recruitment. The programme addresses research on artificial intelligence and autonomous systems acting in collaboration with humans, adapting to their environment through sensors, information and knowledge, and forming intelligent systems-of-systems. Software is the main enabler in these systems, and is an integrated research theme of the programme.
WASP involves five Swedish universities (together with numerous Swedish industries):
- Chalmers
- KTH
- Linköping University
- Lund University
- Umeå University
At Lund University the following four departments participate:
- Department of Automatic Control
- Department of Computer Science
- Department of Electrical and Information Technology
- Matematical Imaging Group at the Department of Mathematics.
