The Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at the Professorship für Digital Image Processing seeks to fill from February 1st,2025
both positions are full-time (40 hours per week) and to be filled für a limited period of 36 months.
The Computer Vision Group (https://inf-cv.uni-jena.de) is internationally active and successful in developing machine learning methods for computer vision and dynamic system analysis. We contribute to the areas of active and continuous learning, 3d and unstructured data processing, anomaly detection, and causal reasoning. Applications and partners currently come from ecological and biodiversity research, earth system science and medicine as well as industry. Our ultimate goal is to develop methods for analyzing, understanding and predicting complex, dynamic sensor data
Both positions are in the area of fine-grained visual categorization and shall continue this successful research through further methodological developments in the areas of knowledge integration in machine learning and multi-modal learning. You will have the opportunities to leverage recent foundation models, e.g., large vision models (LVMs) and vision language models (VLMs), as well as to integrate domain knowledge and uncertainty quantification into the prediction systems. Your research will benefit from collaborations with computer vision and machine learning experts working on related topics within the group as well as from interdisciplinary knowledge exchange with domain experts and project partners.
Candidates with severe disabilities will be given preference in the case of equal qualifications and suitability.
