Internship and PhD position in machine learning for multimodal engagement analysis in human-robot interactions (HRI)
Telecom ParisTech [1], LTCI lab [2]
Salary: according to background and experience
*Position description*
The internship/PhD project will take part in a collaboration between Softbank Robotics and Télécom ParisTech on the topic of engagement analysis in interactions of humans with Softbank?s robots. The role of the intern/PhD student will consist in developing robust machine learning systems able to effectively take advantage of the multimodal signals acquired by the robot?s sensors during its interaction with a human. The work will include: - the design of appropriate elicitation protocols and multimodal data acquisition procedures ; - the development of multimodal feature learning and dynamic classification procedures capable of handling noisy observations with missing values, especially exploiting deep learning techniques ; - the evaluation of the system in realistic scenarios involving end-users. The PhD project will be hosted at Telecom ParisTech department of images, data and signals of [3], jointly by the social computing [4] and the audio data analysis and signal processing [5] teams.
As a minimum requirement, the successful candidate will have:
? A Master?s degree (possibly to be granted in 2018) in one of the following areas: computer science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, signal processing, affective computing, applied mathematics ? Excellent programming skills (preferably in Python) ? Good command of English
The ideal candidate will also (optionally) have: ? Knowledge in deep learning techniques
