Background
Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) is Sweden's largest individual research program ever. WASP provides a platform for academic research and education, fostering interaction with Sweden's leading technology companies. WASP has the ambition to strengthen and develop Sweden's knowledge and competence in the areas of AI and machine learning through an international recruitment program. Thus, the WASP positions are not intended as a mechanism to strengthen Sweden's existing faculty, but to attract new talent to Sweden.
http://wasp-sweden.org/As part of this initiative, Örebro University is now looking for two associate senior lecturers in computer science specialising in machine learning, for a fixed term of 4-6 years at the School of Science and Technology. In particular, the area of these positions is related to fundamental research in machine learning which can either be driven by theory or application. Application driven fundamental research can for example include (but is not limited to) applications in robotics or autonomous systems.
The associate senior lecturers shall pursue research in computer science at the Centre for Applied Autonomous Sensor Systems (AASS) at the School of Science and Technology on Örebro University's main campus. AASS focuses on artificial intelligence, robotics as well as autonomous and intelligent sensor systems.
