PhD or Postdoc Research position Industrial Engineering

The position is created within the integrated project Adaptive Modular Architecture for Rich Motor Skills (AMARSi), funded by the European Commission within the 7^th Framework Program Cognitive Systems, Interaction, Robotics. The consortium comprises ten European research groups from robotics, machine learning, computational neuroscience and behavioral neuroscience, providing a rich context for interdisciplinary research.

The AMARSi project investigates complex modular neurocontroller architectures for quadruped and humanoid robots, and strives to unite methods from robot engineering with insights from biological motor control. In the MINDS group, the emphasis is on the design and mathematical analysis of hierarchical motor control learning architectures based on recurrent neural networks in the spirit of reservoir computing (www.reservoir-computing.org).

The following series of qualifications will be used to assess the quality of applications:

a doctorate or master's or equivalent degree in machine learning, engineering control, computational neuroscience, mathematics, theoretical physics, signal processing or related fields (required);
a strong background in mathematics (compulsory), especially in dynamic systems (highly desired), and signals and systems (desirable)
Experience in machine learning, control, recurrent neural networks (highly desirable)
Experience in the development of intelligent agents (required)
a very good command of English (required)
Openness to interdisciplinarity and endless curiosity (required).

Details about the positions and the AMARSi project can be requested from Herbert Jaeger.

Jacobs University Bremen is an equal opportunity employer and has been certified “Family Friendly” by the Hertie-Stiftung.

Please send in electronic format a letter of application, CV, copies of academic certificates, and possibly samples of published work to Herbert Jaeger (h.jaeger „at“ jacobs-university.de), who also invites further inquiries. Applicants passing an initial screening will be requested to supply two letters of reference.

Application Deadline : 30 April 2011

Biomechanics and Phd Industrial Engineering Design Section at K.U.Leuven, Netherlands

During minimally invasive (robotic) surgery (MIS), the surgeon cannot feel the forces he/she is exerting on the tissue, and is thus risking unwanted damage to the tissue. This PhD is part of an interdisciplinary project of which the ultimate goal is to impose safety margins on the surgical instruments to avoid tissue damage during robotic surgery. The focus lies on cardiovascular tissue.

This focus of this PhD will be to search for and/or design accurate models of cardiovascular tissue on the one hand, but fast models of this same tissue on the other hand. Accurate constitutive and finite element models are required to define the maximum allowable load a tissue can bear. On the other hand, fast models are required to estimate and apply these thresholds intraoperatively and thus in realtime during surgery.

This research has computational as well as experimental aspects to it. There will be a close collaboration with cardiac surgeons, biotechnologists and the engineers of the division of production, machine design and automation.
