Dear colleagues,

two research positions (either at the postdoctoral or the PhD level) in machine 
learning for user-modelling and human-robot Interaction are available at the 
Personal Robotics Laboratory of the Department of Electrical and Electronic 
Engineering at Imperial College London. Successful applicants will work under 
the supervision of Dr Yiannis Demiris (www.demiris.info) in the context of the 
new EU H2020 project PAL (Personal Assistants for healthy Lifestyle, 
2015-2019), which aims to develop personalised robotic systems and avatars to 
assist diabetic (T1DM) children and their caregivers. The PAL positions are 
available from 1st of March 2015 until the end of the project at the end of Feb 
2019 subject to renewal.

Additional PhD positions through the A*STAR-Imperial partnership programme 
(project “Robot Learning by Demonstration for Heterogeneous Bimanual 
Collaboration Tasks”), the Chinese Scholarship Council programme, and the 
Imperial PhD scholarship scheme, among others, are also available.

For all positions, applicants should have an excellent background in 
mathematics, machine learning and software engineering, and should be committed 
to applying their research to real systems interacting with people in 
challenging environments.

The positions offer an excellent working environment in one of the world's top 
research universities, in one of the most exciting cities in the world. The 
Department of Electrical and Electrical Engineering at Imperial was ranked as 
the top EE department in the UK in the recent REF 2014, while its Personal 
Robotics Laboratory offers an energetic, friendly intellectual environment with 
state of the art facilities http://www.imperial.ac.uk/PersonalRobotics
