Offer Description
The successful candidate will be involved in cutting-edge research aimed at developing scalable sparse deep learning models that are not only powerful but also energy-efficient. This position offers the unique opportunity to contribute to high-impact projects, collaborate with world-renowned experts in the field, and publish in top-tier journals and conferences.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and implement scalable, energy-efficient deep learning algorithms.
- Conduct rigorous experimental evaluations to benchmark the performance and energy efficiency of the developed models.
- Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to apply these models to real-world problems in areas such as natural language processing, computer vision, and more.
- Publish and present research findings in leading scientific journals (e.g., Machine Learning, JMLR) and conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, IJCAI, AAMAS, ECMLPKDD).
- Contribute to the mentoring of graduate students and junior team members.
The Postdoctoral Researcher will be embedded in the DMB research group headed by Prof. dr. Maurice van Keulen and the supervision will be ensured by Dr. Elena Mocanu. This position is part of the Modular Integrated Sustainable Datacenter MISD project, and will have ample collaboration opportunities. As part of the MISD project effort led by Elena Mocanu, we are opening multiple positions (two Ph.D. candidates and one PostDoc) to join us and work at the interplay of dynamic sparse training in neural networks on various tasks.
