DaSCI Headquarters

Since February 2022, DaSCI has its headquarters at the PTS Business Center (CEPTS) located at the Avenida del Conocimiento 41, Sector A, 3rd floor.

It is located in the “Parque Tecnológico de la Salud” with capacity for 50 researchers, and for the management and secretariat of the institute. There are research offices, work and meeting rooms and two laboratories: the first specialized in Artificial Intelligence for Forensic Anthropology and Human Identification; and the second one, dedicated to signal processing and biomedical applications.

The Artificial Intelligence for Forensic Anthropology and Human Identification Laboratory (IAFAIH-Lab) of the Data Science and Computational Intelligence Research Institute (DaSCI-UGR) exploits the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to assist forensic professionals. We apply AI techniques to assist the forensic expert and technician in the application of biological profile and ID estimation techniques. It has specific infrastructure, acquired through research projects and competitive calls for research infrastructure in which the UGR has participated, at a cost of about 200K euros.

The signal processing and biomedical applications laboratory of the UGR (DASCI- SIPBA) and collaborators at the University of Malaga and Cambridge, has several infrastructures among which we highlight the GPU-based computing systems and devices for the acquisition of bioelectrical, biometric and cortical activation signals. The technological assets of this equipment lie in the state-of-the-art implementation of the most advanced feature extraction methods for the processing of biomedical signals in general, and magnetic resonance and tomography images in particular. The complete equipment (hardware+software) make up innovative diagnostic support systems using machine learning, such as those based on deep learning or statistical agnostic models in neuroscience.
