We are looking for a researcher in Computer Science for a fixed-term position at the School of Natural Science and Technology.

Subject area
The subject area for this position is Computer Science, in particular the use of machine learning for visual perception algorithms in the context of an industrial project.

Background
The Center for Applied Autonomous Sensors Systems (AASS) is looking to hire a researcher with competence and interest in the field of machine learning for perception. The researcher is to be associated with the KKS-funded Synergy project TeamRob: Teams of Robots Working for and with Humans. TeamRob addresses the core research question of how to realize teams of intelligent robots that are capable of working for and with humans. Working for humans means making it possible to train autonomous robots as easily as humans, eliminating the need for task-specific programming effort. When successfully deployed, robots should be able to train new robots, as we would expect human workers to be able to do. Working with humans means enabling robots and humans to cooperate in the same or overlapping workspaces, on the same or similar tasks. This requires not only comparable competence to humans in carrying out tasks, but also the ability to fluidly cooperate with each other and with humans, to understand the intentions of human co-workers and, vice-versa, making robot intentions and behaviors legible to humans.

The researcher will be responsible for devising perception models that allow for seamless transfer of skills between a human teacher and a robot, or between individual robots. A key design goal is to devise learning algorithms for extracting robust perceptual feature encoding spaces, allowing for generalizable action policies.

Duties and responsibilities
The position is expected to involve solely scientific research work. Research tasks will be dictated by the needs of the KKS Synergy project TeamRob and in line with the research topics described in the background section above.

Qualifications
Those qualified for the appointment as a researcher are applicants who have obtained a doctoral degree or have a degree from abroad deemed to correspond to a doctoral degree in Computer Science or a related discipline.

Assessment criteria
Proven ability to produce scientific publications at the highest international level and within the topics of perception, autonomous systems, and machine learning is a must. Familiarity with point cloud neural architectures is a second requirement for this position, as is familiarity with the associated coding frameworks and tools. Prior experience with object detection, object recognition, and object pose estimation tasks is a plus, as is familiarity with the robot operating system (ROS) framework.

A general basis for assessment is that the applicant is able to demonstrate the personal qualities required to successfully perform the duties and responsibilities at hand; that they are able to cooperate with other members of staff; and contribute to the development of university operations.

Information
This is a fixed-term full-time position for 3 months. At Örebro University, salary depends on the successful candidate’s qualifications and experience, and positions announced are, where appropriate, subject to a trial period (only for permanent positions).

For more information about the position, contact Todor Stoyanov +46 19 30 33 58, email: [email protected], Federico Pecora, +46 19 30 33 19, email: [email protected], or head of division Lars Karlsson  +46 19 30 33 55, email: [email protected] .

At Örebro University, we expect each member of staff to be open to development and change; take responsibility for their work and performance; demonstrate a keen interest in collaboration and contribute to development; as well as to show respect for others by adopting a constructive and professional approach.

The School of Science and Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, with a specialization in machine learning and machine reasoning for a fixed-term appointment.

Subject area
The position is in Computer Science.

Background
The post-doc will be affiliated with the research Centre for Applied Autonomous Sensor Systems (AASS, http://www.oru.se/aass), which carries out multi-disciplinary research at the intersection of robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, computer vision, computer science, and measurement technology.

Örebro University is a modern and prominent broad-based university with the courage to review and the ability to evolve. Our professional degree programs are among the best in the country and we endeavor to be an attractive place of work where members of staff feel a sense of pride and satisfaction. 1,500 employees and 17,000 students come to work and study at Örebro University.

The post-doc will investigate how to develop systems that learn and reason in an artificial intelligence and autonomous systems context.  While there has been a lot of progress on both machine learning and machine reasoning, their integration remains a key open challenge in artificial intelligence and autonomous systems.  The distinction between learning and reasoning is related to the differences between fast and slow thinking, between data-driven and knowledge-based approaches, and between symbolic versus subsymbolic representations. The project will build upon probabilistic (logic) programming and neuro-symbolic computation, which are different paradigms for integrating learning and reasoning. The former integrates logical and probabilistic graphical models, the later logical and neural approaches. The goal of the project is to develop probabilistic programming and neuro-symbolic approaches and systems, and apply them to autonomous sensor systems.  Research in this project will be performed in close collaboration with two PhD students and post-doc(s) at Örebro University. 

The project is part of the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP), Sweden’s largest ever individual research program, and a major national initiative for strategically basic research, education and faculty recruitment. The vision of WASP is excellent research and competence in artificial intelligence, autonomous systems and software for the benefit of Swedish industry.
