Doctoral student in models, algorithms, and optimization for machine learning

Project description

Third-cycle subject: computer science

We invite applications from talented and highly motivated candidates to pursue a PhD in machine learning at KTH, Sweden, and NTU, Singapore. This is a fully funded, joint doctoral position that will lead to a joint PhD degree awarded by KTH and NTU. The successful candidate will be supervised by professor Aristides Gionis (KTH), associate professor Kelly Ke Yiping (NTU), and assistant professor Sebastian Dalleiger (KTH). The doctoral student will be recruited and formally enrolled at KTH, and will be required to spend a minimum of 12 months at NTU in Singapore as part of the joint program.

The research project is broadly situated in the field of machine learning. Potential research topics include, but are not limited to, algorithmic knowledge discovery, graph mining and social network analysis, optimization for machine learning, representation learning, and fair, accountable, and transpa...
