PhD student position in deep generative modeling for medical image analysis

4 weeks ago


Gothenburg, Sweden Chalmers tekniska högskola Full time

Are you passionate about pushing the frontiers of machine learning, computer vision, and their applications in medical imaging? 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
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.
