Last days to apply for funded PhD positions on Machine Learning at Max Planck Institute of Intelligent Systems

The newly established Minerva Research Group on Probabilistic Learning, headed by Isabel Valera, within the Department of Empirical Inference at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Tübingen, Germany, is looking for PhD students in the area of machine learning, particularly in Bayesian modeling and inference, starting early 2019.

Our research aims to bridge the gap between theoretical and practical aspects of machine learning, by developing general and flexible machine learning methods to analyze real-world data in a semi-automatic and interactive way. More specifically, we aim at providing with robust machine learning models and methodologies that

can handle the complex, often unstructured, heterogeneous and time-dependent nature of real-world data,
while accounting for uncertainty at all levels (including model parameters and specifications); and at the same time,
provide interpretable results, as well as clear mechanisms to incorporate domain-specific prior knowledge, e.g., to enforce safety and fairness.
The probabilistic learning group has extensive work on Bayesian modeling and inference on real-world data such as heterogeneous and continuous- and discrete-time data, automating data pre-processing, exploratory data analysis and fairness in ML; and covers diverse applications domains which range from bioengineering and psychiatry to social and communication systems.

Up to 5 PhD fellowships in Cognitive Neuroscience at SISSA, Trieste, Italy

SISSA is an elite postgraduate research institution, focused on Maths, Physics and Neuroscience. It operates in English: many among its students and faculty are not Italian. Campus above Trieste, overlooking the Gulf. Research approaches in the CNS PhD https://phdcns.sissa.it/ span the range from cognitive psychology and imaging in humans to behavioural neuroscience and multiple single-unit recording in rats, mathematical and computational modeling; with research groups led by Domenica Bueti, Davide Crepaldi, Mathew Diamond, Chris Mathys, Raffaella Rumiati, Alessandro Treves and Davide Zoccolan. Allied approaches are pursued in other SISSA PhDs.

All admitted students receive a 4-year fellowship and engage full-time in research based in Trieste, with limited coursework in the first few months, talks and seminars throughout the year and a TEX event in the summer, see https://indico.sissa.it/event/26/

Admission exam Sept 13-4, 2018; Deadline for applications: Aug 31, 2018.

Many Doctoral and Pre-Doctoral 5 year positions available under an ERC Starting Grant on the organiz

The Proaction Laboratory (Perception and Recognition of Objects and Actions; https://gaius.fpce.uc.pt/pessoais/jorgealmeida/proaction_home.html; Jorge Almeida’s Lab) at the University of Coimbra (www.uc.pt), Portugal is looking for motivated and bright doctoral and pre-doctoral researchers to work on a prestigious ERC Starting Grant project (ContentMAP) on the neural organization of object knowledge. In this project we will explore how complex information is topographically organized in the brain using fMRI and state of the art analytical techniques, as well as computational approaches, and neuromodulation.

Experience with fMRI and data analysis is required. Strong programming skills (matlab, python, etc.) are also a requirement. Experience with data analysis techniques used in vision and object recognition (e.g., Representational Similarity Analysis, MVPA, Machine Learning, population Receptive Fields/phase lag analysis), as well as computational approaches to cognitive neuroscience (e.g., SOM) is a plus. Very good English (oral and written) communicative skills are necessary.

The positions are for a maximum of 5 years, and will start in February 2019. The salary is competitive especially considering the cost of living in Portugal (and particularly in Coimbra).

The researchers will work directly with Jorge Almeida in Coimbra, but the laboratory has extensive collaborations with researchers throughout the world. In fact, there may be the option of spending some time in another lab as part of the position.

We have access to a 3T MRI scanner with a 32-channel coil (with EEG inside the scanner), to tDCS with neuronavigation, and to a fully set psychophysics lab. We have EEG and eyetracking on site. We also have access, through other collaborations, to a 7T scanner. Finally, the University of Coimbra is a 700 year old University and has been selected as a UNESCO world Heritage site. Coimbra is one of the most lively university cities in the world, and it is a beautiful city with easy access to the beach and mountain.

The deadline for the application is November 20, but you should apply as soon as you can, as we may fill in the positions sooner than the deadline if there are candidates with a superb fit with the requirements and project. The interested candidates should email Jorge Almeida for questions and applications. Please send an email with the subject “Positions under ERC - ContentMAP” with your curriculum vitae, list of publications, 2 reference letters, and a short description of your experience in the field and how you fulfill the requirements (fit with the position) to: [email protected].

RL/Game Focused Post-Doctoral Research Fellow Appointment - Air Force Research Laboratory, Space Vehicles Directorate, Kirtland AFB, NM.

Dear Colleagues,

AFRL is recruiting a post-doctoral researcher for the topic below:

AI Development for Competitive Space-Based Games: The research topic is centered on development of AI engines (primarily reinforcement learning approaches) to compete in a multi-player, competitive, zero-sum game involving space dynamics and space environment constraints, e.g. power, thermal, communications, etc. The project will involve co-opting or developing the game mechanics as needed; using openly available game engines and physics simulations to implement the game in a form suitable for play by computers; the development & training of AI engines using openly available development environments; the analysis of AI player performance against human players; and documentation of results via reports and/or technical papers.

US Citizenship is required for this position. We cannot accept dual-citizens (defined as holding a non-US issued passport) or US Permanent Residents.

The position has the option for a 2nd year renewal subject to agreement on both sides. There are potential opportunities for follow-on employment at AFRL.

Please pass this on to potentially interested parties and/or your colleagues who may know potential candidates.

Interested candidates should contact me directly at the email address below with a CV and expected availability date. Address any questions to this address as well.
