The Department of Physics and Technology at UiT The Arctic University of Norway is pleased to announce 4 exciting PhD Fellowships within machine learning. Within the Visual Intelligence Research Centre, the PhD positions are affiliated with the UiT Machine Learning Group.
The positions are for a period of three years. The objective of the position is to complete research training to the level of a doctoral degree. Admission to the PhD programme is a prerequisite for employment, and the programme period starts on commencement of the position.
The workplace is at UiT in Tromsø. You must be able to start in the position within a reasonable time after receiving the offer.
Visual Intelligence (VI) is a research centre in AI funded for 8 years as a Centre for Research-based Innovation (SFI) by the Research Council of Norway (grant no. 309439) and consortium partners. In VI, you will join a strong team whose research focus is to develop next generation neural networks for advanced analysis of image and multimodal data. Central research challenges are to develop neural networks that learn more efficiently from limited data, that are better able to quantify uncertainty in predictions, that incorporate context, and that are interpretable.
The UiT campus in Tromsø is located near the city centre. Tromsø is a vibrant city located in Northern Norway, just shy of 80 000 inhabitants, surrounded by the stunning landscape of Northern Scandinavia. The location also offers ample opportunities for e.g., sighting the nothern lights, midnight sun, hiking and skiing.
As a VI researcher, you will contribute to solving the pressing societal challenges of our time for a sustainable future. You will contribute important new solutions within healthcare and precision medicine, be at the forefront in marine ecosystem monitoring by AI, enable novel methods for more efficient use of energy resources or infrastructure, and help develop better ways to observe the Earth from space to benefit the planet and to aid decision-making. This will be done by collaborating with VI consortium partners from industry and the public sector to create new innovations to benefit Norwegian value creation.
3 of the PhD positions are funded through the center's budget, and one position is funded by a UiT's interdisciplinary project called the Consortium for Patient-Centered AI (CPCAI).
For all 4 positions, potential directions are to research new ways to
Each of the 4 positions has a different innovation area:
Important
A detailed work plan and project description for the PhD candidate will be devised in a collaboration between the fellow, the research team and the supervisors, as well as the consortium partners.
You will be a part of Visual Intelligence via the UiT Machine Learning Group. In addition, you will be part of the Visual Intelligence Graduate School (VIGS), a vibrant community of early career researchers within the centre. For position 4, you will in addition be part of the CPCAI project. You will engage in collaborative research with the other members of the centre and the group towards research-based innovation. You will conduct research in collaboration with VI consortium partners and must expect time and effort to go into the interdisciplinary collaboration.
You will be expected to actively collaborate with the centre’s consortium partners and interest and experience with interdisciplinary research and innovation will be considered positively. You expected to contribute to the centre’s virtual and physical seminars, to be open to collaboration across innovation areas within the centre, and to be open to collaboration between the research partners within the centre. VI hosts the conference NLDL (Northern Lights Deep Learning Conference http://nldl.org) and you are expected to be involved in the organization.
For enquiries about for the position, please contact:
We are particularly seeking candidates with solid background in machine learning methodology, in terms of the mathematical and statistical foundation of such methods. We are seeking candidates with course work and experience in deep learning, neural networks and machine learning, e.g. self-supervised learning, convolutional neural networks, transformer-based networks, eigenvalue/eigenvector-based methods, graph-based approaches, Bayesian learning, information theory, geometric methods or neural operator learning.
Required qualifications:
Preffered qualifications:
Desired qualifications:
We will also emphasize motivation and personal suitability for the position. We are looking for interested, active and highly motivated candidates, who like to explore new technologies, are both independent thinking and enjoy working in a collaboration with others. We hope this is you!
In the assessment, the emphasis is on the applicant's potential to complete a research education based on the master's thesis or equivalent, and any other scientific work. In addition, other experience of significance for the completion of the doctoral programme may be given consideration.
As many people as possible should have the opportunity to undertake organized research training. If you already hold a PhD or have equivalent competence, we will not appoint you to this position.
For employment in the PhD position, you must be qualified for admission to the PhD programme at the Faculty of Science and Technology and participate in organized doctoral studies within the employment period.
Admission normally requires:
In order to gain admission to the programme, the candidate must document sufficient potential for research. The applicant must have a grade point average of C (strong 3.0) or better for the master’s degree, which must contain an independent work. A more detailed description of admission requirements can be found here.
If you are employed in the position, you will be provisionally admitted to the PhD programme. Application for final admission must be submitted no later than two months after taking up the position.
Applicants with a foreign education will be subjected to an evaluation of whether the educational background is equal to Norwegian higher education, following national guidelines from Norwegian Directorate for Higher Education and Skills. Depending on which country the education is from, one or two additional years of university education may be required to fulfil admission requirements, e.g. a 4-year bachelor's degree and a 2-year master's degree. UiT normally accepts higher education from countries that are part of the Lisbon Recognition Convention.
UiT The Arctic University of Norway is working actively to promote equality, gender balance and diversity among employees and students, and to create an inclusive and safe working environment. We believe that inclusion and diversity are a strength, and we want employees with different competencies, professional experience, life experience and perspectives.
If you have a disability, a gap in your CV or immigrant background, we encourage you to tick the box for this in your application. If there are qualified applicants, we invite at least one in each group for an interview. If you get the job, we will adapt the working conditions if you need it. Apart from selecting the right candidates, we will only use the information for anonymous statistics.
Norwegian health policy aims to ensure that everyone, irrespective of their personal finances and where they live, has access to good health and care services of equal standard. As an employee you will become member of the National Insurance Scheme which also include health care services.
