Netherlands : Research Assistantship in Ontology-Based Data and Meta-Mining

Applications are invited for the position of research assistant in the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (http://cui.unige.ch/AI-group), CSD, University of Geneva. The successful candidate will participate in a European FP7 research project where s/he will investigate advanced knowledge discovery issues such as algorithm and model selection, data mining ontology development, meta-learning, and integration of prior knowledge into machine learning. Research on these issues should support development of software modules to be integrated into a virtual data mining laboratory. Further information on the project can be found on http://www.e-lico.eu. Gross starting salary will be around 4400-5000 CHF/month (1 CHF = 0.65 EUR), depending on qualifications.

Candidates should have at least a Master's degree in Computer Science. They should have excellent programming skills as well as communication skills in English (and ideally in French). A solid background in machine learning/data mining, substantiated by a Master's thesis or peer-reviewed publications in the field, is mandatory. Preference will be given to candidates who additionally have training or experience in ontology development. A strong academic record, excellent analytical skills and a clear aptitude for autonomous, creative research will be priority selection criteria. The selected candidate who so wishes will have the possibility of pursuing a PhD degree on a topic relevant to the project.

Applications should include a curriculum vitae, MS and BS academic transcripts, a brief statement of purpose, a list of publications, and names and e-mail addresses of at least 2 references.
