hela Sverige Örebro University and the School of Science and Technology is offering a PhD position in Computer Science. The position is expected to conclude 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.
Project Description
The focus of the project is machine learning and artificial intelligence for computer vision and robotic perception.
The project looks at how investigates how robots and autonomous systems can learn adaptively to successfully operate in changing environments. Real-world environments are constantly changing, and for a robot or autonomous system to operate successfully without human intervention or catastrophic failure, it must have both the capacity to recognise change and the flexibility to adapt its beliefs and behaviours. Furthermore, autonomous systems must have the ability to explain and justify their decisions and actions. The goal of this project is to develop robust systems by which an autonomous intelligent system can evaluate both its own models of the world, and the current environmental conditions, to provide confident and explainable predictive models.
The project is part of the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP), Sweden's largest individual research program ever, a major national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education and faculty recruitment. The program addresses research on artificial intelligence and autonomous systems acting in collaboration with humans, adapting to their environment through sensors, information and knowledge, and forming intelligent systems-of-systems. The vision of WASP is excellent research and competence in artificial intelligence, autonomous systems and software for the benefit of Swedish society and industry. Read more:
https://wasp-sweden.org/.The PhD students will belong to the graduate school within WASP. The graduate school within WASP is dedicated to provide the skills needed to analyze, develop, and contribute to the interdisciplinary area of artificial intelligence, autonomous systems and software. 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.

https://wasp-sweden.org/graduate-school/The successful candidate should show strong and 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 robotics, is a merit.
