Postdoctoral Research: Symmetry Breaking in Deep Learning

Laplace Expert Ltd; Netherlands; Remoto; EUR 41.000 - 64.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

The University of Amsterdam invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher to study symmetries and their breaking in deep learning, supported by Simons funding. The aim is to connect physical notions of symmetry and universality with neural network behavior and robustness.

The appointment is an independent research position with potential teaching and project duties; candidates should propose a concrete prior project and a credible plan to test claims and compare explanations in AI and

Competenze

• Researchers with experience in computer science, applied mathematics, implementation skills and empirical evaluation.
• Appointment length and division of research, teaching and project responsibilities must be checked against the employer’s full instructions.
• In preparing an application, the candidate should use a concrete prior project to show why the advertised topic fits their skills and identify any important method that still needs to be learned.

Mansioni

• Independent research reading and development of a concrete plan to study symmetries and their breaking in deep learning.
• Test and compare explanations for neural network behavior using computational models, software systems and algorithm evaluation, with clear baselines and uncertainty assessment.
