To strengthen our team on Machine Learning, we recruit excellent researchers working in one or more of the following areas:

  • Sustainable Machine Learning, e.g., resource efficient methods, specific hardware (neuromorphic computing quantum computing)
  • AI on topologically complex or distributed systems (distributed ML, graph NN)
  • Systems of Systems AI
  • Physics informed machine learning

Duties

Associate professors must be involved in education, educational development and research at the University. Associate professors must also keep abreast of the international development of the subject and supervise doctoral students.
