英国博后研究助理牛津大学计算机视觉Computer Vision

We are seeking a full time Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join the Visual Geometry Group at the Department of Engineering Science in central Oxford. The post is funded by Continental Corporation and is fixed-term for 2 years.

The successful candidate will have an opportunity to work on cutting-edge computer vision and machine learning research projects. You will develop new deep learning algorithms for highly-reliable visual object detection, semantic image segmentation, human pose and action understanding, and similar. You will write algorithms and manage your own academic research. The successful candidate will be embedded in Oxford Information Engineering Department, home to some of the most successful international computer vision groups. He/she will be given the opportunity for personal development beyond research, for example by contributing to departmental teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels. He/she is also expected to contribute to the supervision of DPhil (PhD) students.

While the aim is to develop core machine learning algorithms for core computer vision problems, the candidate can expect his/her research to be a major innovation driver for Continental’s applications to automotive.

Candidates should have (or be about to complete) a PhD in a relevant field. Candidates are expected to have a solid background in deep learning and computer vision, a strong personal drive towards innovation and leadership, and the ability to develop high-performance algorithms both theoretically and practically. A solid publication record in top-tier computer vision and machine learning conferences is expected.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Andrea Vedaldi (email: vedaldi@robots.ox.ac.uk with subject “Continental PDRA”).

You will be required to upload a covering letter/supporting statement, including a brief statement of research interests (describing how past experience fits with the advertised position), CV and the details of two referees as part of your online application.

There are three more PDRA posts being advertised in computer vision with the Seebibyte Programme Grant funded by EPSRC. Please ensure that you apply for both positions using the online application form to be considered for both roles.

Only applications received before midday on 16 March 2017 can be considered. 

The Department holds an Athena Swan Bronze award, highlighting its commitment to promoting women in Science, Engineering and Technology.
