[Corpora-List] Post-doctoral position in NLP and ML at Macquarie University and Data61, Sydney, Australia

[Mark Johnson]

The NLP/ML group in the Dept of Computing at Macquarie University, 
Sydney, Australia is recruiting a post-doctoral researcher for a joint 
research project "Information Extraction and Parsing Methods for 
Government and Enterprise Applications" on information and relation 
extraction involving Macquarie University, CSIRO's Data61 and the 
University of Edinburgh.  The project uses syntactic parsing and deep 
learning to extract "who did what to whom when" from a large corpus of 
texts.  The research involves integrating information extracted from 
multiple texts and using this information in creative ways, e.g., 
building event time-lines for individuals, learning entailments between 
predicates and relations, etc.

The post-doc will report to Professor Mark Johnson in the Department of 
Computing, Macquarie University and Dr Stephen Wan of CSIRO's Data61, 
Marsfield, and will be collaborating with Professor Mark Steedman of 
Edinburgh University.

You will need to have a PhD and strong research record in NLP and ML, 
especially Deep Learning.  You will need to show proficiency with Deep 
Learning toolkits such as TensorFlow and Pytorch. Applications close on 
the 5th December 2018.  For further information and applications see the
