Fully funded Ph.D. grant in prenoscriptive analytics including additional funding
DEADLINE FOR PRELIMINARY APPLICATION PHASE: 30/JULY/2018
The Ph.D. Programme in Informatics Engineering at the University of Porto is starting a groundbreaking funding initiative in collaboration with some of the leading IT companies in Portugal to support outstanding candidates in areas including machine learning, artificial intelligence, software engineering, blockchain and others.
The funding includes:
-a monthly grant of 1100€ (above the value of the portuguese national grants, 980€)
-tuition fees
-some additional funding for traveling and equipment
-2 MSc grants/year, to be supervised by the PhD student
The candidate should have a very strong background in Informatics engineering, computer science and, ideally in artificial intelligence/machine learning.
The first grant is funded by InovRetail (https://www.inovretail.com) and aims to develop a platform for prenoscriptive analytics to automate decision making processes based on predictive models. The project will be supervised by Carlos Soares (https://scholar.google.pt/citations?user=Lw7ojGsAAAAJ&hl=en).
Interested students should send a 1 page PDF document to csoares@fe.up.pt UNTIL 30/JULY/2018, containing:
-a summarized CV
-a one paragraph statement of why you should be selected for the grant
Additional advantages of this initiative are:
-a PhD project tightly coupled with industry and focused on problems of great interest to industry;
-Access to training activities and workshops promoted by the funding company (including training on additional technical areas and soft skills);
-Advice on writing the cv, on best ways to behave on interviews, on time management, etc.
-Privileged access to technical reports and technology;
-Advise on business plans and IP (registration, patent applications, etc.)
-Privileged access to investors investor capital and startup programs;
-Possibility to achieve higher impact based on the combination of two worlds (academia + industry) and on the associated resources;
-Influence and propose future technology, methodologies, and practices (Informatics Engineering of the Future);
-Acquire the expertise to strongly contribute to decision making in terms of technology;
The Ph.D. project will be carried out at the Department of Informatics Engineering (https://dei.fe.up.pt/pt/home-page/) of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, one of the most dynamic and fastest growing departments of the U. Porto.

Postdoctoral Fellow – Computer Vision in Health Monitoring Applications, Canada
Location: Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Start Date: Immediately
Closing Date: Until the position is filled
Keywords: Computer Vision, Deep Learning, Human Pose Tracking, Facial Expression Analysis, Machine Learning, Health Monitoring
Denoscription:
The Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Research (AIRR) team at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute (TRI) invites applications to the position of Postdoctoral Fellow. The project relates to the application of deep learning and computer vision techniques to health monitoring. You will join a leading multi-disciplinary research team centred at TRI, part of the University Health Network and affiliated with the University of Toronto.
TRI is the largest rehabilitation hospital in Canada and is the number one rehabilitation research center in the world. We are affiliated with the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto, one the best CS schools in the world. We are only a few minutes away from the CS building and also from the Vector Institute. So you will have a chance to attend seminars, talks, and paper reading sessions.
You will be working with real data, from real patients, and solving real-life healthcare problems. At the same time, there are plenty of inspiring computer science questions and challenges to tackle. So you will have a chance (and you are expected to) conduct computer vision (and/or machine learning) research and publish in major CS journals and conferences as well as publications geared towards clinical audiences. We have a goldmine of clinical data, including longitudinal gait and posture data (videos) and facial expressions data (images/videos) of older adults with dementia.
Multi-disciplinary work experience is a plus, but this could also be an ideal position for a hands-on recent graduate who has proven herself/himself in theoretical and algorithm development/implementation aspects and wants to apply her/his knowledge to solve practical problems in healthcare.
Requirements:
The successful candidate will hold a PhD in computer science or a related discipline or will be graduating by September 2018. She or he is also expected to have a solid research and publication record related to computer vision and deep learning (e.g. human pose estimation/tracking, facial expression analysis). A strong publication record and solid programming skills (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn) are expected.
Application:
The nominal start date is ASAP. There is no official closing date and applications will be reviewed as they are received. To apply, submit your CV and a link to your github page to Dr. Babak Taati. Please include [Computer Vision PDF 2018] in the subject line. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
