This PhD position is part of the Awesome project.
The selected PhD student will carry out research in collaboration with other members of the Awesome research group.
The research topics are connected to the Awesome project, where the goal is to develop an advanced digital communication platform for Volvo Group that optimizes data collection, analysis, and content creation across interal and external communication channels. To achive this goal, the research revolves around Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods and adopting and tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) such as GPTs, BERT, and RoBERTa. Moreover, since the adoption of LLMs is to be customized for Volvo Group's needs, Reinforcement Learning (RL) is used to customize LLMs based user feedbacks more effectively. Last but not least, Explainable AI (XAI) would be an integral part of the designed digital platform, as transparency in NLP model's decision and reasoning behind generating content is of massive importance.
The employment also includes teaching responsibilities corresponding to a maximum of 20% of full-time.
