*** Postdoctoral Fellow Position in Machine Learning *** *** Technical University of Crete, Greece ***
A full-time postdoctoral fellow position in Machine Learning is available within the Intelligence Lab of the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, Technical University of Crete, Chania, Greece. This appointment is scheduled to begin in January 2007 and involves an initial one-year commitment with the possibility of renewal for one additional year. The successful candidate will conduct research on the use of modern supervised learning methods for approximating and representing policies in large reinforcement learning problems. The focus of the project will be on scalability, efficiency, and applicability to real-world problems. Proposed methods will be applied and tested on various single- and multi- robot learning tasks using the robotic equipment of the lab (four AIBOs, a hexapod, two small humanoids, a modular robot). The successful candidate will work closely with assistant professor Michail G. Lagoudakis and his group of graduate students. There will also be opportunities for interaction and collaboration with members of the RoboCup team of the lab, as well as possibilities for lectures, seminars, and graduate classes. Suitable applicants must hold a PhD degree in computer science, machine learning, or a related discipline and have a strong background in reinforcement and supervised learning. Candidates familiar with programming (mainly C and MatLab) and robot programming in particular will be given priority. Excellent command of the English language is required. Interested candidates should submit their electronic CVs including at least three contacts for references to Michail G. Lagoudakis (contact information below) by *December 15, 2006* as URL pointers on the web (no attachments or hard copies, please). The search will continue until the position is filled.
