We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the general area of machine learning for audio to join the team of a 2.5M Euro European Research Council funded project entitled “EAR: Audio-based Mobile Health Diagnostics”.
The general aims of the project are to advance the use of audio for automatic diagnostics of clinical conditions. More widely the project aims to devise robust in-the-wild audio analytics targeting clinical applications and develop new on-device machine learning paradigms.
For this specific post we are seeking candidates with background in machine learning (and signal processing) for audio analytics. The position is available for 3 years.
Requirements: Candidates should have been awarded a PhD (or be very close to submission of one) and ideally have a strong publication record in machine learning for audio or acoustics and signal processing. The candidate should also have good programming skills. Good communication, presentation and management skills are also desirable given the size of the project team.
This position can be filled by an appropriate candidate at research assistant or research associate level, depending on relevant qualifications and experience. Appointment at research associate level is dependent on having a PhD (or equivalent experience). Where a PhD has yet to be awarded the appointment will initially be made as a research assistant and amended to research associate when the PhD is awarded.
