Thursday, November 12, 2020 by Chris Wellekens

6-28 (2020-10-30) 2 Research Assistant/Associate Posts at Cambridge University, Great Britain
  
2 Research Assistant/Associate Posts in Spoken Language Processing at Cambridge University (Fixed Term)
 
Applications are invited for two Research Assistants/Research Associates in the Department of Engineering, Cambridge University, to work on an EPSRC funded project Multimodal Video Search by Examples (MVSE). The project is a collaboration between three Universities, Ulster, Surrey and Cambridge, and the BBC as an industrial partner. The overall aim of the project is to enable effective and efficient multimodal video search of large archives, such as BBC TV programmes.

The research associated with these positions will focus on deriving representation for all the information that is contained within the video speech signal, and integrating with other modalities. The forms of representation will include both: voice analytics e.g. speaker and emotion; and topic and audio content analytics e.g. word-sequence and topic classification and tracking. The position will involve close collaboration with Surrey and Ulster Universities to integrate with other information sources, video and the audio scene, to yield a flexible and efficient video search index.

Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available until 31 January 2024 in the first instance
Closing date: 1st December 2020
