Edmund F. Brekke received the M.Sc. degree in industrial mathematics and the Ph.D. degree in engineering cybernetics from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway, in 2005 and 2010, respectively. From 2010 to 2014, he worked with the Acoustic Research Laboratory (ARL), NUS, Singapore, as a postdoctoral Research Fellow. In 2014, he rejoined NTNU and the Department of Engineering Cybernetics as an Associate Professor in sensor fusion. This position was funded as a gift professorship by DNV in 2014–2019. He was the Project Manager for the Autosea project, developing methods for sensor fusion and collision avoidance for autonomous surface vehicles. He is currently a Key Scientist for the Autoferry project, which is focused on autonomous pedestrian ferries, Work Package Manager in the Centre for Research-Based Innovation SFI Autoship, and the Project Manager of the Autosit and Autosight projects, which are focused on automated situational awareness for autonomous surface vehicles. He is an Associate Editor of the IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering. His research interests are in the area of sensor fusion and situational awareness, with a particular focus on multitarget tracking.
