=============== Postdoctoral Research Associate Position The Teamcore Research Group Computer Science Department University of Southern California Fall 2011
The Teamcore group (http://teamcore.usc.edu) is focused on research on multi-agent systems where multiple agents (including software agents, robots and people) may interact. We focus on fundamental research issues in Decision Theoretic (distributed MDPs), Game Theoretic, Belief-Desire-Intentions (BDI) and Distributed Constraint Reasoning (DCR) approaches to multiagent systems. In addition to fundamental research, our group is particularly interested in use-inspired research: applying research in multiagent systems to real-world problems and advancing fundamental research to address these needs. For example, our algorithms have been deployed for real-world use by several agencies including the LAX police, the US Coast Guard, the Federal Air Marshals service and the Transportation security administration. We are working with several other agencies including the LA Sheriff's Department. We have new openings for post-doctoral research associate position starting in Fall 2011 or early Spring 2012. Research will focus on the areas of fundamental research outlined above with emphasis on new algorithms and but also on their practical implementations / applications. Interested applicants should send their CV and have three letters of recommendation forwarded to Professor Milind Tambe (ta...@usc.edu). A key aspect of our research is the interedisciplinary partnerships beyond Computer Science. To that end, one key group that a potential postdoctoral research associate will interact with is the Game theory and human behavior group (gthb.usc.edu). However, research projects also include several other collaborations; please see our research projects at teamcore.usc.edu -- Milind Tambe Professor Computer Science and Industrial & Systems Engineering Departments University of Southern California PHE 410, 3737 Watt Way, Los Angeles, CA 90089 http://teamcore.usc.edu/tambe http://teamcore.usc.edu Tel: 213-740-6447; Fax: 213-740-7285 -- Bo AN Postdoctoral Research Associate TEAMCORE Research Group Department of Computer Science University of Southern California http://teamcore.usc.edu/people/boa _______________________________________________ uai mailing list uai@ENGR.ORST.EDU https://secure.engr.oregonstate.edu/mailman/listinfo/uai
