Assistant Professor, Wilfrid Laurier University
Alysha van Duynhoven, PhD.
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies at Wilfrid Laurier University. My research interests and expertise are situated at the intersection of Computing Science and Geographic Information Science (GIScience). My current research focuses on advancing geospatial artificial intelligence (GeoAI) methodologies for analyzing and modelling problems arising from human-environment interactions. I am particularly interested in spatially-explicit and explainable GeoAI solutions that keep domain experts "in the loop."
Research
Spatially-explicit GeoAI
