Örebro, Örebro, Sweden Orebro Universitet Full time

The School of Science and Technology at Örebro University is looking for a doctoral student in machine learning for the doctoral program in computer science, concluding with a doctoral degree (PhD. in Computer Science).

Start date: Summer / Fall 2025.

Project Description

The research topic for this position is machine learning applied to one of the following focus areas of the Adaptive and Interpretable Learning Systems research group where the position is hosted:

  1. Reinforcement learning, focusing on task priorities, composability of tasks and policies, constraints, and transfer.
  2. Machine learning for counterfactual prediction and treatment effect estimation with large-scale observational data and deep learning models, focusing on countering selection bias, causal learning, identification of causal and irrelevant factors, and disentanglement of underlying variables.
  3. End-to-end learning for inverse optimization, focusing on identifying underlying cost models, learning from noisy observations, non-stationary and multi-modal data, differentiating through black-box optimizers and differentiable optimization, and representing uncertainty.
  4. Deep generative modeling of bio-medical data, focusing on identification of unknown chemicals/environmental pollutants from mass spectrograph data, predicting toxicity of compounds, in-silico models for replacing the need of animal studies, and representation learning for transfer between in-vivo and in-silico models.
  5. Spatio-temporal modeling of sensor and robotic data with probabilistic models, focusing on Gaussian Process Implicit Surface models, tomography data, sparse models, and model constraints.

Applicants need to indicate their topic preferences in the application.

The position will be funded by the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP), which is Sweden's largest individual research program ever, a major national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education and faculty recruitment. The program addresses research on artificial intelligence and autonomous systems acting in collaboration with humans, adapting to their environment through sensors, information and knowledge, and forming intelligent systems-of-systems.

The vision of WASP is excellent research and competence in artificial intelligence autonomous systems and software for the benefit of Swedish society and industry.

Supervision: The doctoral student will be supervised by J. A. Stork (principal supervisor).
