PhD Position in Geometric Deep Learning: Exploring Symmetries in Neural Networks
6 days ago
Project Overview:
Geometric deep learning is a rapidly growing field that combines the power of neural networks with the mathematical beauty of symmetry. As a PhD student in this project, you will delve into the theoretical foundations of equivariant networks, exploring how symmetries can be leveraged to improve the performance of deep learning models.
Research Questions:
- Develop new methods for constructing equivariant networks that can handle complex symmetries
- Provide mathematical descriptions of the resulting models, ensuring a deep understanding of their behavior
- Analyze how symmetries affect the training process of neural networks, leading to more robust and accurate results
Qualifications:
- Admission to the Mathematics or Mathematical Statistics doctoral program at Umeå University
- Qualifications equivalent to a completed second-cycle degree, including at least 60 ECTS credits in mathematics or mathematical statistics
- Excellent programming skills, preferably in Matlab or Python
- Good written and spoken English knowledge
- Documented knowledge and experience in machine learning, image analysis, probability theory, differential geometry, algebra, optimization, representation theory, and functional analysis
About the Employment:
The PhD position is a full-time paid position, lasting four years with the possibility of a fifth year with part-time teaching. The main task is to pursue third-cycle studies, including research and third-cycle courses. The duties may include teaching or other departmental work, up to 20% of a full-time post.
