Dear colleagues,
(Sorry for crossposting)
I am pleased to announce a call for application for an
18 month postdoc position,
starting in March 2025, at University of Lille, France, in the Algomus
team, on the topic of lifelong learning for mixed initiative musical
co-creativity under the supervision of Ken Déguernel (CNRS researcher)
in the scope of the ANR (French National Research Agency) project
MICCDroP.
Candidates should have a PhD in Computer Music, with strong experience in machine learning and human-computer interaction.
Project description:Current
Human-Ai co-creative systems, have opened new possibilities for
musicking by facilitating novel creative processes and modes of
interactions. However, these systems lack the ability for long-term
adaptation between user and machine. The postdoc will address this
limitation by developing and evaluating Ai methods designed for lifelong
learning for co-creative musicking. Supervised and unsupervised
strategies will be implemented and tested. The project will then focus
on agent personalisation allowing the Ai systems to adapt based on
user-specific characteristics and preferences. Areas of interest will
include engagement, inclusivity, performance, and system maintenance.
The development of the models implemented in this project will be
carried out in constant interaction with expert musicians, fully
integrating these collaborations into the iterative process of designing
the models and architectures.
The deadline for application is
January, 3.Please contact me at
ken.de...@univ-lille.fr, to send your application interest or if you have any questions.
