The Visual Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at Oxford Brookes University, led by Professor Fabio Cuzzolin, is seeking 1/2 Postdoctoral Researchers in #AI for the Operating Room of the Future, to be appointed as soon as possible, full-time, until December 31 2022.
***Candidates with background in action and activity detection are strongly encouraged.*** Deadline: Jan 31 2022. Salary: £32,344 rising annually to £35,326. The Postdoc(s) will lead the Lab’s efforts in the context of a new #EPSRC Transformative #healthcaretechnology project entitled “MAESTRO Jr - Multi-sensing AI Environment for Surgical Task & Role Optimisation”, and led by Dr George Mylonas of Imperial College London. https://lnkd.in/eSWAHhqZ The project’s overarching objective is to take radical steps towards the development of an AI-centred #operatingroom of the 2050s. It envisages a #smart operating room environment (which we term MAESTRO, in analogy with the way an orchestra conductor, a 'maestro', oversees, overhears and directs a group of people on a common task) powered by trustable, human-understanding #artificialintelligence, able to continually adapt and learn the best way to optimise safety, efficacy, teamwork, economy, and #clinical outcomes. In particular the #postdoc will lead the work on multi-sensing #situationalawareness for automated #checklisting (in particular object, action and activity detection from a network of RGB-D cameras and 3D object detection), detection of #cognitive overload in #surgical staff, and #continuallearning for #perception and #decisionmaking. The Visual Artificial Intelligence Laboratory https://lnkd.in/e_mABMr is a fast-growing research unit currently running on a budget of £3 million from nine live projects funded by #horizon2020 (2), #innovateuk (2), #Leverhulme, @Huawei, the British Council and others. We are leaders in the field of #deeplearning for #actiondetection and event detection, but our research interests span artificial intelligence, #uncertainty theory, #machinelearning, #computervision, #autonomousdriving, surgical and mobile #robotics, #aihealthcare. The Lab is currently pioneering frontier topics in AI such as #machine theory of mind, self-supervised learning, continual learning and future event prediction. You will join a vibrant and fast growing team foreseen to comprise 35+ people in 2022. You will support Prof Cuzzolin in the overall management of the project. You will be working on a network of cutting edge 4-GPU and 8-GPU workstations, mentor #phd and #msc students and seek additional external #funding to complement the Lab’s existing activities. You are encouraged to contact Prof Cuzzolin at fabio.cuzzo...@brookes.ac.uk for more information and an informal feedback on your application.
