PhD position in Computational Modelling and Machine Learning at IT University of Copenhagen (deadline March 20th)
by Stefan Heinrich Feb. 13, 2023

Feb. 13, 2023
PhD position at IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark, starting in Summer 2023. Topic: Modelling hierarchical learning of music and speech processing. How does the human brain hierarchically process music or speech? It seems the brain is dynamically adapting to the timescales in the sensation in a way that components of music, such as melodies and low base lines are processed and integrated differently. Furthermore, it seems crucial that the brain is using a statistical learning scheme, thus learning this adaptation by how frequently these components occur. Despite a number of existing neuroimaging studies and scarce attempts to suggest underlying computational principles, research for detailed models is open. We plan modelling the learning of music by studying different computational mechanisms, both, more precise and w.r.t. its functionality close to specific biological neuron models, as well as more coarse, based on general computational principles such as hierarchical network structure, decoding schemes, and distributed activation. The computational research will be conducted side-by-side with a series of empirical EEG studies to verify the validity and further specify the models. The project is part of a cross-departmental initiative between the departments of computer science and digital design aimed at investigating machine-learning-based computational models of the human mind in relation to digital media interaction. Results from this project can enable understanding human information processing better, as well as applying derived computational principles in AI and machine learning approaches of the next generation. Application details: The ideal candidate should have a Masters in Computer Science, Computational Neuroscience, Developmental Psychology, Cognitive Science or related fields, as well as a strong interest in interdisciplinary research, at the intersection of Computational Modelling and Machine Learning. The salary scale will be in accordance with the Ministry of Finance’s agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations for a full-time position. ITU is a teaching and research-based tertiary institution concerned with information technology (IT) and the opportunities it offers. The University offers an informal working environment, a varied everyday life, and a highly motivated, competent, and 160 diverse international faculty. Copenhagen has a strong educational system, a rich cultural life, universal healthcare, good childcare, and a well-functioning infrastructure. The city is also among the world’s most liveable cities according to the Economist Global Liveability Index. Candidates will work together with Stefan Heinrich (stehe(a)itu.dk) and Paolo Burelli (pabu(a)itu.dk) and are encouraged to get in contact to develop the project details together. Link to apply and further application details: https://candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationInit.aspx?cid=119&ProjectId=181… Application deadline: 20 March 2023, at 23:59 CET. -- *************************** Dr. Stefan Heinrich Assistant Professor Computer Science Department IT University of Copenhagen https://stefanheinrich.net/ ***************************

1ˢᵗ Advanced Scientific Programming in Python - Latin America in Mexico City, Mexico, 26 June – 1 July, 2023
by Jakob Jordan Feb. 13, 2023

Feb. 13, 2023
ASPP-LatAm: 1st Advanced Scientific Programming in Python - Latin America ========================================================================= a Summer School by the ASPP faculty, the National Autonomous University of Mexico and the Secretarı́a de Educación, Ciencia, Tecnologı́a e Innovación de la Ciudad de México. https://latam.aspp.school Scientists spend more and more time writing, maintaining, and debugging software. While techniques for doing this efficiently have evolved, only few scientists have been trained to use them. As a result, instead of doing their research, they spend far too much time writing deficient code and reinventing the wheel. In this course we will present a selection of advanced programming techniques and best practices which are standard in the industry, but especially tailored to the needs of a programming scientist. Lectures are devised to be interactive and to give the students enough time to acquire direct hands-on experience with the materials. Students will work in pairs throughout the school and will team up to practice the newly learned skills in a real programming project — an entertaining computer game. We use the Python programming language for the entire course. Python works as a simple programming language for beginners, but more importantly, it also works great in scientific simulations and data analysis. We show how clean language design, ease of extensibility, and the great wealth of open source libraries for scientific computing and data visualization are driving Python to become a standard tool for the programming scientist. This school is targeted at Master or PhD students and Post-docs from all areas of science. Competence in Python or in another language such as Java, C/C++, MATLAB, or R is absolutely required. Basic knowledge of Python and of a version control system such as git, subversion, mercurial, or bazaar is assumed. Participants without any prior experience with Python and/or git should work through the proposed introductory material before the course. We are striving hard to get a pool of students which is international and gender-balanced. Date & Location ============= 26 June – 1 July, 2023. Mexico City, Mexico. Application ========= You can apply online: https://latam.aspp.school Application deadline: 23:59 UTC, Sunday March 12, 2023. There will be no deadline extension, so be sure to apply on time. Be sure to read the FAQ before applying: https://latam.aspp.school/wiki/faq Participation is for free, i.e. no fee is charged! Participants however should take care of travel, living, and accommodation expenses by themselves. We are in the process of securing some funds for supporting students with accommodation and living costs. Program ======= • Version control with git and how to contribute to open source projects with GitHub • Best practices in data visualization • Testing and debugging scientific code • Advanced NumPy • Organizing, documenting, and distributing scientific code • Advanced scientific Python: context managers and generators • Writing parallel applications in Python • Profiling and speeding up scientific code with Cython and numba • Programming in teams Tentative Faculty ================= • Aitor Morales-Gregorio, Theoretical Neuroanatomy, Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine, Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany. • Carlos Cernuda, Data Analysis & Cybersecurity, Faculty of Engineering, Mondragon Unibertsitatea, Bilbao, Spain. • Jakob Jordan, Department of Physiology, University of Bern, Switzerland. • Jenni Rinker, Department of Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark, Roskilde, Denmark. • Lisa Schwetlick, Experimental and Biological Psychology, Universität Potsdam, Germany. • Pamela Hathway, GfK, Nuremberg, Germany. • Pietro Berkes, NAGRA Kudelski, Lausanne, Switzerland. • Rike-Benjamin Schuppner, Institute for Theoretical Biology, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin Germany. • Seetha Krishnan, Department of Neurobiology and Institute for Neuroscience, University of Chicago, Chicago, USA. • Tiziano Zito, Department of Informatics, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany. • Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek, Red Hat Inc., Warsaw Poland. Organizers ========== Head of the organization for ASPP-LatAm and responsible for the scientific program: • Carlos Echeverria Serur, Department of Psychology, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany Organization team in Mexico: • Cristina Muzquiz Fragoso, DGTIC, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Mexico • Miguel Angel Villanueva Velez, DGTIC, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico • Patricia Garces Natera, DGTIC, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico Website: https://latam.aspp.school Contact: latam(a)aspp.school

The methodological tools developed will first be applied to a highly novel dataset of human social interaction videos with associated behavioral and clinical outcomes. The methods will then be applied to the lab's datasets involving human MRI data during social decisions, human physiological and EEG data during social interactions, videos of rodent social interactions, or rodent LFP data during social interactions, depending on the applicants' primary interests and background. This is highly interdisciplinary position and line of research, so successful applicants may come from a variety of fields, including (but not limited to) neuroscience, cognitive science, mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, and (bio)statistics. However, all applicants should have excellent coding skills, extensive experience with data analysis, and at least some experience with statistical modeling and prediction. Experience with image processing is ideal, but not required. Applicants who want to use the postdoc to deepen or broaden their existing skill sets, applications, or domain knowledge are welcomed. Neuroscientists who want mentorship in mathematical theory or engineers/mathematicians/statisticians who want mentorship in how to apply their skills to an exciting and dynamic field with theoretical, clinical, and commercial implications are particularly encouraged. The applicant will be co-mentored in neuroscience, social behavior theory, mathematical theory development, applied analysis, and job placement by Dr. Schaich Borg (Duke Institute for Brain Science, Social Science Research Institute) and Dr. Hau-Tieng Wu (Departments of Mathematics and Statistics). Timeline: The postdoc could start immediately, but later start dates are also available for appropriate candidates. Teaching: The position does not require any teaching, but teaching opportunities and teaching mentorship are available if the candidate is interested. Contact: Interested applicants should contact Dr. Schaich Borg (js524(a)duke.edu) through email, and include a CV, statement of research interests, and names of three referees that can provide letters of recommendation in the future, if needed. We are strongly committed to a diverse academic environment and place high priority on attracting underrepresented candidates. Duke University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer committed to providing employment opportunity without regard to an individual's age, color, disability, gender, gender expression, gender identity, genetic information, national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, or veteran status. Duke aspires to create a community built on collaboration, innovation, creativity, and belonging. Our collective success depends on the robust exchange of ideas-an exchange that is best when the rich diversity of our perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences flourishes. To achieve this exchange, it is essential that all members of the community feel secure and welcome, that the contributions of all individuals are respected, and that all voices are heard. All members of our community have a responsibility to uphold these values.
