Post-Doctor in Informatics with Specialization in Machine Learning, HS 2016/600, application deadline August 12th 2016 - University of Skövde

University of Skövde is seeking a post-doc in machine learning for a project where the main application scenario will be text analytics. The post-doc will have an unique opportunity to develop new machine learning algorithms, e.g., from the field of deep learning, to detect and predict how text flows from the internet evolve over time based on over 700 000 different sources on the open web (through an API provided by our partner company Recorded Future). The post-doc will be affiliated with the Skövde Artificial Intelligence Lab (SAIL), which is one of the oldest and most prominent research groups in artificial intelligence (AI) in Sweden. At the University of Skövde Informatics is defined as the science that addresses how information is represented, processed and communicated in artificial and natural systems, and how such systems are used and developed in order to achieve usable and effective applications and solutions for individuals, organizations or society. The post-doc is positioned at the School of Informatics, which is a school in expansion.
