Olga is a senior researcher of machine learning and artificial intelligence at the Leverhulme Centre for Nature Recovery (LCNR). She works on applying machine learning for nature recovery: digitising historic topographic maps for estimating deforestation over time, deriving forest health from remote sensing, measuring biodiversity via acoustics. She is passionate to develop novel machine learning methods that serve nature recovery.
