[ICS-2369] Call for expression of interest for one (1) position of Researcher with a PhD degree in Computer Vision
We seek one experienced researcher in Computer Vision with a PhD degree. The candidate will participate in the R&D activities of FORTH-ICS in the context of the H2020 project “MAGICIAN - iMmersive leArninG for ImperfeCtion detectIon and repAir through human-robot interactioN”, funded under Horizon 2020, HORIZON-CL4-2022-DIGITAL-EMERGING-02, and will work on Computer Vision related aspects. A common trait of many important markets is the increasing attention of consumers to the aesthetic quality of the products. Even products like mid-segment cars are required to be defect-free in all the areas falling under the direct sight of the customer. These expectations translate into high-quality standards in the production process, which are currently met by requiring an important physical effort to the workers in unsafe environments. The MAGICIAN project will take on the challenge producing a modular automation solution in which robots are used to detect and rework production defects before the last production phases commence and the aesthetics of the product is finalised. The project will produce two robotic solutions, one for defect analysis (the SR) and one for the defects’ rework (the CR). The SR and the CR can be used separately, with the humans remaining in charge of some of the activities, or in combination, with the CR operating on the defects identified by the SR. The SR can also be used in connection with the welding robotic station in order to adapt the process parameters. The robots will use Artificial Intelligence modules to detect and discriminate the defects from multi-modal data (the SR) or to decide the best policy to use for defect rework (the CR). In both cases, the decision logic of the modules will be trained using machine learning algorithms. The training data set will be acquired with the help of workers, who will operate on semiworked products within a controlled environment. The SR and the CR will rely on the software services of a common robotic platform. The solution will be developed adopting a human-centered approach, which will allow us to evaluate the impact of the innovation on the production processes and remove the most important asperities along this path. The effectiveness of the solution will be tested on a usecase, and its generality proven by recruiting additional contributors and use-cases through a FSTP scheme. The candidate will work on computer vision for measurement and analysis of human-objects interaction in order to contribute in tasks regarding the visual perception of the MAGICIAN system. More specifically, the intended topics of contribution are (a) Vision-based defects detection during inspection and (b) observation of human workers during defect handling and reworking.

[ICS-2091] Call for expression of interest for one (1) position of student enrolled to University MSc Program, in the Institute of Computer Science (ICS) Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas (FORTH)
We seek one (1) student enrolled to a University MSc Program in Computer Science or Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering. The candidate will participate in the R&D activities of FORTH in the context of the EC-funded project dAIEdge. The dAIEDGE project aims to reinforce the research and innovation value chains to accelerate the digital and green transitions through advanced edge AI technologies, applications, and innovations, building on Europe's existing assets and industrial strengths. The key aim is to support and ensure rapid development, market uptake and open strategic sovereignty for Europe in the critical technologies for distributed edge AI (hardware, software, frameworks, tools). The ultimate goal for the dAIEDGE is to support Europe to become a global centre of excellence with unique human-centred edge AI competence addressing the social and economic challenges and the needs of the citizens and society.

[ICS-2089] Call for expression of interest for one (1) Ph.D. student fellowship position "Higher-order statistics for neutral hydrogen intensity mapping" at the Institute of Computer Science (ICS) Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas (FORTH)
We look for one PhD student who will forecast the capability of such advanced higher-order statistics for HI intensity mapping, in the view of the upcoming SKA Observatory. They will apply these new statistical methods to simulated HI intensity mapping data for the first time. To this purpose, it will also be necessary to modify the existing techniques to account for the peculiarities of the HI intensity mapping signal, like its superb redshift resolution, opposite to its rather poor angular resolution (compared to optical surveys). Moreover, the telescope beam plays an important role, and it will have to be modelled accurately to extract the most of the information. All of this will be done with the most advanced techniques of machine learning and data analysis of cosmological maps. The goal is to forecast constraints on cosmological parameters as per the planned SKA Observatory HI intensity mapping survey, which will cover 5000 to 15,000 square degrees.

[ICS-2087] Call for expression of interest for one (1) Postdoctoral Researcher position in “Radio Weak Lensing” at the Institute of Computer Science (ICS) Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas (FORTH)
We seek one Postdoctoral Researcher who will explore the introduction of weak lensing-specific constraints in deep learning models that prevent galaxy shape distortions, extending paradigms from optical methodologies to the radio domain. The effort will focus on large-scale reconstruction algorithms able to optimize the measurement of shape parameters from SKA interferometry through the coupling of deep-learning-based image priors with geometric shape regularization. The post-doctoral researcher will be located at the premises of FORTH with a strong collaboration with the CosmoStat Laboratory at CEA Saclay.
