PhD and post-doc positions in emergent deep net communication

[Marco Baroni]

We are offering a number of 5-year postdoc positions and 4-year PhD fellowships to work on the ALiEN project at Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona. Selected candidates will have competitive salaries and enjoy considerable freedom to lead basic research work within the framework of the project.

ALiEN (Autonomous Linguistic Emergence in Neural Networks) is an ERC-funded project investigating spontaneous communication in populations of deep neural networks, with the aim to improve their flexibility in solving complex AI tasks and the interpretability of their behavior.
