* Our group and research, and what do we offer: --------------------------
The fellows will join the Machine Learning Section at DIKU. The Machine Learning section is among the leading research environments in Artificial Intelligence and Web & Information Retrieval in Europe (in the top 5 for 2020, according to csrankings.org<http://csrankings.org/>), with a strong presence at top-tier conferences, continuous collaboration in international & national research networks, and solid synergies with big tech, small tech, and industry. The Machine Learning section consists of a vibrant selection of approximately 65 talented researchers (40 of whom are PhD and postdoctoral fellows) from around the world with a diverse set of backgrounds and a common incessant scientific curiosity and openness to innovation.
* The fellows will conduct research, having as starting point the following broad research areas: --------------------------
- a fully-funded PhD in machine learning evaluation; - a fully-funded PhD in bias and interpretability for machine learning; - a fully-funded PhD in overparameterization and generalizability in deep neural architectures; - a fully-funded PhD in applied machine learning and/or information retrieval with focus on human-centered computing aspects; - a fully-funded PhD in web & information retrieval.
* Who are we looking for? --------------------------
We are looking for candidates with a MSc degree in a subject relevant for the research area. The successful candidate is expected to have strong grades in Machine Learning and/or Information Retrieval. For one of the PhDs, the candidate is expected to also have strong grades in Human-Centered Computing. The candidate should have a preliminary research record as witnessed by a master thesis or publications in the area.
