Join the Computer Vision Group as a PhD student specializing in deep generative modeling for medical image analysis.
Project description
This PhD position offers an opportunity to delve into the area of deep generative modeling within the broader landscape of machine learning, computer vision and medical image analysis. As a candidate, you'll have the chance to develop theoretical concepts and innovative methodologies while contributing to real-world medical imaging applications. Moreover, you will enjoy working in a diverse, collaborative, supportive and internationally recognized environment.
PhD project centers on deep generative models for image synthesis, creating realistic images from limited data, and image translation, transforming images between different domains. We aim to explore the application of these models in various medical image analysis areas, including domain adaptation, weakly supervised segmentation, out-of-distribution detection and model explainability. The goal is to develop state-of-the-art methods based on key enabling techniques from machine learning such as representation disentanglement and conditional generative networks.
The research group
The Computer Vision group conducts research in the field of automatic image interpretation and perceptual scene understanding. The group targets both medical applications, such as the development of new and more effective methods and systems for analysis, support, and diagnostics, as well as general computer vision applications including autonomously guided vehicles (particularly self-driving cars), image-based localization, structure-from-motion, and object recognition. The main research problems include mathematical theory, algorithms, and machine learning (deep learning) for inverse problems in artificial intelligence, as well as application to medical problems.
Major responsibilities
Your major responsibilities are to pursue your own doctoral studies. You are expected to develop your own scientific concepts and communicate the results of your research verbally and in writing. The position generally also includes teaching on Chalmers' undergraduate level or performing other duties corresponding to 20 per cent of working hours.

Qualifications
To qualify as a PhD student, you must have a master's level degree corresponding to at least 240 higher education credits in a relevant field (physics, mathematics or computer science).
The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English. If Swedish is not your native language, Chalmers offers Swedish courses.
Contract terms
Full-time temporary employment. The position is limited to a maximum of five years.
We offer
Chalmers offers a cultivating and inspiring working environment in the coastal city of Gothenburg.
