Tenure Track Assistant Professor Intelligent Systems https://www.rug.nl/about-ug/work-with-us/job-opportunities/?details=00347-02... Closing date = 17-9-2023 We offer a Tenure Track Assistant Professor position with a research profile in Intelligent Systems within the Bernoulli Institute for Mathematics, Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands. Intelligent Systems aim to give computers and cyber-physical systems the abilities to perceive, analyze and learn from data, make decisions, and enhance human capabilities. The research area has experienced tremendous growth in recent years, especially due to the increase in incorporation of intelligent systems into nearly every aspect of our lives. The societal relevance of sustainability, efficiency, robustness, understanding and guarantees of algorithms is gaining more and more importance, not only in software but also in combination with cyber-physical systems. Relevant aspects are: the theory of machine learning, artificial intelligence and the mathematics of computing (ACM Computing Classification System, 2012 Revision). For this position, possible research directions include (but are not limited to) the theory and application of novel machine learning and artificial intelligence methods with an emphasis on solving pressing open questions, such as efficiency, transparency and interpretability, fairness, the integration of multi-modal and complex heterogeneous data, causal inference, continuous machine learning, generative and dynamic systems. Complex problems demand an increasing amount of interdisciplinary and cross-domain knowledge. Therefore, backgrounds in information theory, probabilistic representations, causality and computational geometry are also welcome to apply. As Assistant Professor with a focus on research, you will: - set up and develop your own research line and research group - supervise PhD students - acquire external funding - promote the societal relevance of your research - teach in and contribute to the development of the degree programs of the School of Science and Engineering, especially courses with computing science content - contribute to the organization of the faculty, for example by participating in working groups and committees, in the domains of teaching, research and management. The position will be embedded in the Intelligent Systems research unit. Our research areas include biologically inspired computational modeling, the theory of machine learning and algorithmic development, as well as image processing with mathematical morphology, machine learning and AI. National and international research collaborations span a multitude of application domains, including medical sciences and health care, natural sciences (astronomy, bioinformatics), remote sensing, computer vision, robotics, smart industry and engineering. About the University of Groningen Since its foundation in 1614, the University of Groningen has enjoyed an international reputation as a dynamic and innovative center of higher education offering high-quality teaching and research. Balanced study and career paths in a wide variety of disciplines encourage currently more than 37,000 students and researchers to develop their own individual talents. Belonging to the best research universities in Europe and the top 100 universities in the world, the University of Groningen is truly an international place of knowledge.
