2 Open Positions for Early-Stage Researchers Pursuing PhDs in the Area of Artificial Intelligence without Bias
The School of Computer Science at the University of Southampton is inviting applications for two Early Stage Researchers to work in the area of Artificial Intelligence decision making without bias. The researchers will work within the interdisciplinary community of a large EU-funded Marie Sklodowska-Curie European Training Network and will pursue a PhD in Computer Science at the University of Southampton as part of their 3-year engagement with the project.
The specific research topics include methods, tools and frameworks to discover bias in inaccessible (black box) algorithms or to explain the cause of bias in artificial intelligence systems. The successful candidates will have a BSc or an MSc in computer science, data science or related discipline and will be willing to collaborate with researchers and industrial partners in these areas who may work in a different discipline. This collaboration involves extended research stays at partner sites in the UK, in Spain or in other European countries for up to 90 days on each occasion.
Eligibility
At the time of recruitment (i.e. first date of employment), you must not have resided or carried out your main activity (work, studies, etc...) in the UK for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to recruitment under this project. Compulsory national service and/or short stays such as holidays are not taken into account.
At the time of recruitment you must not yet have been awarded your doctorate and must be in the first 4 years (full-time equivalent) of your research career.
Apply.
