Dear colleagues, a postdoctoral research position is available at our laboratory, for someone that has or is about to complete a PhD in a research area with strong mathematical/statistical and computational content. Experience in learning with graphical models, in particular Dynamic Bayesian Networks, Hierarchical BNs, or similar, will be particularly advantageous, as well as experience in modelling and simulating interacting multiagent systems.

Regards, Yiannis -- Dr Yiannis Demiris, Lecturer, Intelligent Systems and Networks Group, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Imperial College London, South Kensington Campus, Exhibition Road, London, SW7 2BT, UK Tel: +44(0)2075946300, Fax: +44(0)2075946274 http://www.iis.ee.ic.ac.uk/yiannis ----------- POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION, IMPERIAL COLLEGE LONDON Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Intelligent Systems and Networks Group Salary: 22,870 - 26,830 UK Pounds per annum dependent on experience Fixed term appointment for two and a half years, commencing 1 October 2006 A Research Assistant/Associate Position is available, with a start date of 1st of October 2006 for 30 months, in the area of machine learning for decision support in controlling multi-agent systems, under the supervision of Dr Yiannis Demiris. The post requires that you have or are about to complete a PhD in an area with strong mathematical and computational content. Excellent programming skills are essential, while knowledge of machine learning algorithms, particularly involving graphical models, will be very advantageous. You will be working in close collaboration with an industrial partner to develop trainable intelligent mobile decision support systems, where learned experience of previous actions (inverse models) and tailored learned agent profiles (forward models) interact to support the decision making process. You will be developing and testing these ideas in simulators involving multiple agents (for example, multiple robots, or vehicles) with real word dynamics. How to apply: To apply, please send your completed application form (downloadable from http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/employment/applicationformacademic or obtainable from Ms Shahareen Hilmy), CV and a cover letter explaining your current interests and relevant background for this project to Ms Shahareen Hilmy, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Imperial College London, South Kensington campus, London SW7 2AZ, UK. We encourage application by e-mail, to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with a copy to [EMAIL PROTECTED], to who informal enquiries about the position can also be addressed. Your CV should indicate two persons who can provide a reference.
