Position description
Streaming data are gaining particular interest for machine learning research. As these data may arrive at a high speed with open ends, it is practically infeasible to store the full volume of data and then process them in a batch-based manner. Learning of big data streams must be performed incrementally and online to fulfill the constraints on memory usage and computing time. Moreover, since the data-generating process is nonstationary in a dynamic environment, the underlying concept that is hidden in data may evolve with time. Adapting to concept drift to reflect the evolution of the dynamic process presents another crucial challenge in the development of stream mining algorithms.

This Ph.D student project will focus on data analysis and machine learning with evolving data streams in a big data scenario. You will develop new methods and algorithms for smart data discovery as well as incremental learning from complex time series data. A key issue will be how to timely update the smart data and knowledge model in reaction to concept drift. You will perform the research in close collaboration with ABB to apply and test the proposed ideas and techniques in real industrial applications, e.g., the monitoring and real-time analysis of power grids.

The position also includes departmental duties such as teaching at the level of 20%

Qualifications
Only those who are or have been admitted to third-cycle courses and study programmes at a higher education may be appointed to doctoral studentships. For futher information see Chapter 5 of the Higher Education Ordinance (SFS 1993:100).
