Mathematical Researcher in Geometric Deep Learning

2 months ago


Umeå, Västerbotten, Sweden Umeå University Full time
Project Overview

The project aims to deepen the mathematical theory of geometric deep learning, a subfield of neural network theory that concerns symmetries in data or learning tasks and constructing neural networks that react properly to them.

Research Questions
  • Develop new ways of constructing equivariant networks
  • Describe the resulting models mathematically
  • Analyze how symmetries affect the training of neural networks
Qualifications

To be eligible for this position, applicants must have qualifications equivalent to a completed degree at second-cycle level or completed course requirements of at least 240 ECTS credits, including at least 60 ECTS credits at second-cycle level.

Applicants must also have completed at least 60 ECTS credits within mathematics or mathematical statistics, of which at least 15 ECTS credits shall have been acquired at second-cycle level.

Requirements
  • Good programming skills (preferably 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 employment is a full-time paid position, for a fixed term of four years full-time or up to five years when teaching part-time.

The position is intended to result in a doctoral degree, and the main task of doctoral students is to pursue their third-cycle studies, including active participation in research and third-cycle courses and activities.
