The fellowship is a full-time position with a fixed-term period of two years and six months, with a preferred start date at the latest November 1, 2023. However, there is an option for extension of the employment depending on the qualifications of the recruited candidate, the department’s need for teaching, and the centre’s need for assistance. We have several international collaborators and having a stay of up to 6 months with one of these can be relevant. The University of Oslo is Norway’s oldest and highest rated institution of research and education with 28 000 students and 7500 employees.
Qualifications: Applicants must have a PhD degree or other corresponding education equivalent to a Norwegian doctoral degree in computer science, robotics, or other relevant field. Thus, applicants should have a strong background in programming, as well as machine learning/deep learning and robotics. Skills in human activity recognition, working with different types of real-world sensor data, multimodal sensor data processing/classification, addressing ethical challenges, perception and control are considered advantageous. A number of partners are involved in the project so collaboration skills would also be assessed.
