Are you interested in working on robust methods for statistical learning theory with potential applications within medicine, with the support of competent and friendly colleagues in an international environment? Are you looking for an employer that invests in sustainable employeeship and offers safe, favourable working conditions? We welcome you to apply for a PhD position at Uppsala University.
The Department of Information Technology holds a leading position in both research and education at all levels. They are currently Uppsala University’s third largest department, having around 350 employees, including 120 teachers and 120 PhD students. Approximately 5,000 undergraduate students take one or more courses at the department each year. You can find more information about us on the Department of Information Technology website.
Project description
In this project, the selected candidate will join us in conducting research in statistical learning, developing data-driven methods to learn models of large-scale signals and systems from data. There will be a strong focus on developing robust methods with mathematical guarantees, focusing on statistical and optimization properties with potential applications to cardiology and medicine. The exact details of the research project are decided in a dialogue between the doctoral student and the supervisor. The student will be part of the WASP graduate school.
