Title: Building and sharing AI applications within ecology and biodiversity.
Organizer: SciLifeLab Data Centre (AI Data Engineers from the SciLifeLab Serve team).
Where and when: February 10, 2026 at 16:00-17:30 at the Museum of Natural History in Stockholm. Address: Frescativägen 40, 114 18 Stockholm.
Abstract: As more researchers in ecology and biodiversity build machine learning models, it is important to find ways to make these models useful for the researcher community or general public. One way to do this is to share the models as web applications with an easy-to-use interface. Users of the models can then adjust parameters or submit their own input and see the result generated by the underlying model. This tutorial is aimed at PhDs and researchers working within ecology and biodiversity who work with machine learning models but do not have the skills to build applications for the web. During the tutorial we will start from a trained model and demonstrate step by step how you can create a graphical user interface for your application, prepare it for deployment, and make it available on the web with a URL. We will demonstrate the use of specific tools which make this process easy and doable in under an hour.
Expected outcomes: Participants will have an overview of various open-source tools for creating applications out of machine learning models. Furthermore, they will have practices creating an application using one such tool or perhaps already have a demo of an application with their own model. Participants will have knowledge about options for hosting their applications and making them available to the general public or to colleagues.
