Dr. Gustaf Hendeby

Biography

Gustaf Hendeby currently holds an Associate Professor position in the Division of Automatic Control, Department of Electrical Engineering at Linköping University. He received his Docent degree in 2015, Ph.D. in March 2008, and Licentiate degree in November 2005, all in Automatic Control from Linköping University. Prior to obtaining his Ph.D., he pursued a Master of Science degree in Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering in December 2002. After completing his Ph.D., Gustaf worked as an Assistant Professor and later as a Senior Scientist at the German Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) in Kaiserslautern, Germany, where he was involved in European projects such as PAMAP and COGNITO, serving as the technical coordinator for COGNITO. After returning to Sweden, he joined the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI) as a target tracking specialist and later rejoined the Automatic Control group as a part-time Adjunct Associate Professor. His research focuses on statistical model-based sensor fusion with applications in target tracking, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), and general nonlinear estimation problems. He has contributed to methods for utilizing large amounts of sensor data, particularly from low-quality sensors, making algorithms more accessible to non-experts. Additionally, Gustaf teaches Sensor Fusion and supervises Master's theses in his general area of interest.
