-- Context
Telecom Paris [2] is a French public institution for engineering higher education (grande ecole) and scientific research, founded in July 1878. It is a founding member of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris [1], a world-class scientific and technological institution. Located in Palaiseau, at the Plateau de Saclay (Paris outskirts), this Institution is a partnership between Ecole Polytechnique, ENSTA Paris, ENSAE Paris, Telecom Paris and Telecom SudParis, with HEC as a key partner. Students and faculty benefit from close relationships between the different institutions.
The Information Processing and Communication Laboratory (LTCI) [3] is Telecom Paris? in-house research laboratory. Since January 2017, it has continued the work previously carried out by the CNRS joint research unit of the same name. The LTCI was created in 1982 and is known for its extensive coverage of topics in the field of information and communication technologies. The LTCI?s core subject areas are computer science, networks, data science, signal and image processing and digital communications. The laboratory is also active in issues related to systems engineering and applied mathematics.
The open position will be hosted by Telecom Paris? Audio Data Analysis and Signal Processing (ADASP) group [4], a subgroup of the statistics, signal processing and machine learning (S²A) team, within the Images, Data & Signals (IDS) department [5].
