Örebro University and the School of Science and Technology are looking for up to two doctoral students for the doctoral programme in Computer Science, concluding with a doctoral degree. The PhD student will be affiliated with the research Centre for Applied Autonomous Sensor Systems (AASS, oru.se/aass), which carries out multi-disciplinary research at the intersection of robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence and computer vision.

Start date: Autumn 2023.

Project description
The focus of the project is machine learning and artificial intelligence for computer vision and/or robotic perception. The project is part of the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP), Sweden's largest ever individual research program, and a major national initiative for strategic basic research, education and faculty recruitment. The vision of WASP is excellent research and competence in artificial intelligence, autonomous systems and software for the benefit of Swedish industry. For more information about the research and other activities conducted within WASP please visit: http://wasp-sweden.org/.

The PhD students will belong to the graduate school within WASP, which is dedicated to provide the skills needed to analyze, develop, and contribute to the interdisciplinary area of AI, autonomous systems and software. The curriculum provides the foundations, perspectives, and state-of-the-art knowledge in the different disciplines taught by leading researchers in the field. Through an ambitious program with research visits, partner universities, and visiting lecturers, the graduate school actively supports forming a strong multi-disciplinary and international professional network between PhD-students, researchers and industry. For more information on the graduate program within WASP, read more at https://wasp-sweden.org/graduate-school/.

The successful candidate should have a strong background in computer science or a related subject and show independent problem solving and critical analytical abilities. Furthermore, the candidate should have good interpersonal and cooperative skills. Fluent spoken and written command of English is essential, while knowledge of Swedish is not necessary. Having courses, a thesis or publications in digital image processing, computer vision, machine learning, artificial intelligence, or robotic perception, is a merit.
