Line Clemmensen

Line Clemmensen serves as Associate Professor at DTU Compute (Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science), Technical University of Denmark, where she has held faculty positions since 2010. Her interdisciplinary work bridges statistical learning, machine learning, and real-world applications in mental healthcare, biotechnology, and agricultural informatics.

Her academic credentials include:

• Ph.D. in Image Analysis and Computer Graphics from DTU (2010), thesis: "High-dimensional sparse data analysis"
• M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics from DTU (2006)
• Exchange studies at Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya, Barcelona (2004)
• Mathematical graduate from Falkonergården upper secondary school (2000)

Clemmensen's research centers on machine learning and statistical learning with emphasis on low-resource modeling, representation learning, and AI evaluation methodologies. She applies these techniques to mental health (developing biosensor-based OCD monitoring systems), biotechnology (spectral data analysis for pharmaceutical quality control), and environmental science (crop health assessment via remote sensing). Her work consistently addresses challenges in data scarcity and model interpretability.

Analysis of her recent publications reveals dominant trends in computational psychiatry (e.g., detecting OCD episodes through physiological signals and oxytocin biomarkers) and agricultural AI (linking soil microbiome composition to crop health via machine learning). Methodologically, she pioneers interpretable deep learning frameworks for low-resource settings and robust time-series analysis techniques for physiological data.

She has supervised 10 PhD students to completion (including Jacob Søgaard Larsen on NIR management and Gudmundur Einarsson on psychiatric motion quantification) and mentored 13 Master's/Bachelor's students. Current funding includes the LundbeckFonden LF-Experiment grant for the FAST project (Fast Assessment of psychiatric Symptoms to Transform Mental Health Care).

Within DTU Compute's Section for Statistics and Data Analysis, Clemmensen leads collaborations with Novo Nordisk (biostatistics), the Danish Meat Industry, and clinical psychiatry teams, focusing on real-world AI deployment in mental healthcare and industrial applications.
