-------------------------------------------------------------------- RESEARCH POSITIONS IN AUTOMATED PLANNING UNDER UNCERTAINTY --------------------------------------------------------------------
Two research fellow positions of up to two years duration are available at the ANU, to work on the project “Robust Planning for Hybrid Systems” funded by the Australian Research Council. The project is a collaboration between ANU, NICTA, and KCL and involves Sylvie Thiebaux, Pascal Van Hentenryck, Patrik Haslum, Maria Fox, Derek Long, and Scott Sanner. Salary Package AUD 86,286 - AUD 98,269 pa plus 17% superannuation Application Process: see http://jobs.anu.edu.au/PositionDetail.aspx?p=3879 Closing date: 27 May 2014, C.O.B. Australian time. The appointees will conduct research into innovative ways of integrating AI planning and control of hybrid (discrete/continuous) systems under exogenous uncertainty. They will develop planning systems for important and diverse classes of hybrid planning problems, as well as new stochastic methods to generate plans and policies that are robust to forecast uncertainty conditions. The research is motivated by and will be applied to significant case studies in the management of energy systems. We are looking for outstanding PhD graduates with a track record in the field of AI planning, ideally with an emphasis on planning in mixed discrete-continuous domains or planning under uncertainty. Experience in constraint programming/satisfiability, control, machine learning or optimisation is an advantage but is not essential. For more information, please see http://jobs.anu.edu.au/PositionDetail.aspx?p=3879 and/or contact sylvie.thieb...@anu.edu.au with your CV.
