Fully-funded PhD position in Autonomous Exploration and 4D Mapping by Mobile Service Robots

Faculty of Science - School of Computer Science, University of Lincoln, UK
Salary grade - competitive

A PhD position is available in the Lincoln Centre for Autonomous Systems Research (L-CAS) at the University of Lincoln UK. The position is fully funded for 3 years, including tuition fees, a bursary at the current RCUK doctoral stipend levels, and participation in international conferences and other activities as required by the project.

This project is part of an FP7 project called STRANDS (http://www.strands-project.eu), involving 30+ people, of whom a team of 4 already work at L-CAS (http://robots.lincoln.ac.uk). In the overall project we investigate autonomous mobile robots that must perform 4D mapping in human environments. By this we mean producing not just a map of space (3D mapping), but also of the activities that occur within that space. Such activity maps are necessary for robots to act autonomously within a space shared with humans for long periods of time.

The PhD position is offered in the area of autonomous exploration to complete and refine the acquired 4D maps. The successful candidate will be expected to design, conduct and publish original research on this topic, including developing novel approaches for mobile robot exploration that help to maximise the information gain in spatio-temporal maps, while taking into account the dynamics, changes and evolving activities that occur in real world environments. The studentship offers the opportunity to engage in international collaboration within an ambitious team, to work with state-of-the-art robotic hardware and software, and to benefit from excellent support to produce and disseminate original research contributions.

You should have a Bachelors or Masters in Computer Science, Electronic Engineering, Mathematics or Physics. You should have excellent mathematical and coding skills (C++/Python, ROS), and be available to start work on the project around October 2013.

In the first instance please contact Tom Duckett and Marc Hanheide (tduckett@lincoln.ac.uk, mhanheide@lincoln.ac.uk), with your CV and transcript. Put "STRANDS PhD application" in the subject line. Deadline for applications is the 31st August 2013.

Doctoral/postdoctoral position in Embodied Models of Language Acquisition with Robots
at the Semantic Computing Group, Bielefeld University/CITEC, deadline July 28th

The Semantic Computing group [1] at the University of Bielefeld/CITEC
[2,3] has one open research position on the topic "Embodied Models of
Language Acquisition with Robots".

The goal of the project is to develop an embodied model of language
acquisition that can be implemented on a robot platform with
state-of-the-art manipulation capabilities.

The goal is to develop i) a formalism for the representation of action
that can be used to ground the semantics of verbal constructions in
natural language as well as ii) learning algorithms by which such
representations "emerge" in interaction with a human tutor that guides
the learner by demonstrating actions while verbally describing them.One
important goal will be to develop memory models by which a robot can
learn the invariant essential properties of actions by contrasting and
abstracting from specific situations. The sub-project is part of a
larger project involving six other researchers and several principal
investigators from CITEC. The candidate will be expected to collaborate
with all the other sub-projects towards meeting the goal of developing a
larger demonstrator showing how robots can learn to familiarize
themselves with objects in interaction with a human tutor.

The successful candidate is expected to have a strong background in at
least two of the following areas:

- Cognitive Robotics

- Cognitive Linguistics

- Machine Learning

- Computer Vision

- Computational Linguistics


Candidates with expertise in several topics will be given preference.
Applicants are expected to have strong programming skills, the ability
to work independently, strong interpersonal skills as well as strong
English language skills. Candidates should be qualified for and willing
to perform state-of-the-art research. Knowledge of German is not required.

The group will provide the chance to perform cutting-edge research in an
international context. Applicants for a postdoc position will have the
chance to perform independent research on the topics of the group that
qualifies them for an academic career and allows them to position
themselves as independent researchers in the community. PhD applicants
will receive supervision and support in developing the necessary skills
to produce high-quality research necessary to earn a PhD Degree.

The salary for both PhD and postdoc positions is around 3.300 Euro per
month (pre taxes), according to scale TV-L E 13 in the German University
System and can vary depending on age, marital status, tax class etc. The
salary increases with the duration of the employment. An online tool to
calculate the post-tax income can be found at [4] (indicating E-13).

Bielefeld is one of the 20 largest cities in Germany (with close to
330.000 inhabitants) [5]. It is a lively city with a lot of cultural and
entertainment opportunities (see [6]). It is located in the heart of the
Teutoburg Forest [7], offering many opportunities for outdoor and
leisure activities.

The position is available for two years and can be prolonged for one
more year. Candidates are expected to start on October 1st, 2013.

Applications are invited until July 28th and will be processed as they
are received. Interviews will be scheduled via Skype in the first week
of August.


Applicants will be informed of the outcome of the selection in the
second week of August. Applications should be sent by email to Prof.
Philipp Cimiano at cimiano@cit-ec.uni-bielefeld.de
<mailto:cimiano@cit-ec.uni-bielefeld.de>, preferably as ****one** PDF
document including a CV, motivation letter, publication record (if
applicable), record of teaching activities (if applicable) and any other
relevant information in addition to the names of two referees. The
application should highlight the expertise in the areas mentioned above
and express the research interests of the applicant.
