Skills/Qualifications

The person we are looking for will carry out work that is likely to renew strategies and methods in the field of artificial creativity and cyber-human systems, dealing in particular with mathematical aspects (e.g. representation spaces), individual and collective intelligent interaction strategies (modeling of autonomous musical agents, especially in improvisation: perception, memory, action, reflexivity, motivation) that can evolve towards "symbiotic" interactions and forms of mixed reality.
Particular attention will be paid to the study of new forms of "co-creativity" in cyber-human interaction networks, which appear as emerging processes of joint action, not reducible to the individual production of the agents concerned, according to multiple learning and cross-feedback relationships between the latter, whether natural or artificial. The field explored includes various forms of generative learning, with an interest in interactive models capable of continuous real-time inference when one agent produces a signal as a function of another control signal produced by another agent in a relationship of co-construction of a musical form ("what to play"); models enabling learning of interaction strategies in direct exchange with humans, notably reinforcement learning ("when to play / how to play"); "social" AI,social" AI, accounting for the emergence of collective dynamics in the context of multiplayer games ("who to play with").

Specific Requirements

The hiring is at the full professor level. The candidate must have a position equivalent to professor, senior resesearcher ,or show equivalent research achievements.
