Description
Idiap is currently inviting applications for two new permanent Senior Researcher positions. The main focus of this search is for highly qualified candidates, with evidence of strong research, PhD student supervision, and project management capabilities. Applicants should also demonstrate evidence of the ability to pursue an independent program of research, a strong commitment to both graduate and undergraduate teaching, the ability to initiate and conduct research across disciplines, and to perform technology transfer.

The Idiap Research Institute is an independent, not-for-profit, research institute. Building on strong signal processing and machine learning expertise, the Institute carries out advanced R&D activities in the field of human and media computing, including perceptual and cognitive systems, speech and language processing, computer vision, information interfaces and presentation, social/human behavior, biometric person recognition, robotics, and biological imaging.

The Institute is especially interested in those candidates committed to novel theories and applications of machine learning and signal processing, while contributing to the diversification of Idiap’s activities and bringing expertise in new application areas. Topics of particular interest include (but are not limited to) new applications of deep learning, multimedia processing, autonomous systems, knowledge management, and collaborative systems (collective intelligence, digital humanities). Priority, however, will always be given to the overall originality and promise of the candidate’s work over any specific area of specialization.
